\nPotent mates, daughters, sons, preluding,
\nThe love, the life of their bodies, meaning and being,
\nCurious here behold my resurrection after slumber,
\nThe revolving cycles in their wide sweep having brought me again,
\nAmorous, mature, all beautiful to me, all wondrous,
\nMy limbs and the quivering fire that ever plays through them, for reasons, most wondrous,
\nExisting I peer and penetrate still,
\nContent with the present, content with the past,
\nBy my side or back of me Eve following,
\nOr in front, and I following her just the same.<\/p>\n
\nFrom that of myself without which I were nothing,
\nFrom what I am determin’d to make illustrious, even if I stand sole among men,
\nFrom my own voice resonant, singing the phallus,
\nSinging the song of procreation,
\nSinging the need of superb children and therein superb grown people,
\nSinging the muscular urge and the blending,
\nSinging the bedfellow’s song, (O resistless yearning!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
