I forgot how much I love Walt Whitman. From Leaves of Grass: I sing the body electric; The armies of those I love engirth me, and I engirth them. ... I have perceiv’d that to be with those I like is enough, To stop in company with the rest at evening is enough, To be surrounded by beautiful, curious, breathing, laughing flesh is enough, To pass among them, or touch any one, or rest my arm ever so lightly round his or her neck for a moment—what is this, then? I do not ask any more delight—I swim in it, as in a sea.
