Walt Whitman - A Paumanok PictureWalt Whitman - A Paumanok Picture
Work rating: Low


TWO boats with nets lying off the sea-beach, quite still, Ten fishermen waiting—they discover a thick school of mossbonkers—         they drop the join`d seine-ends in the water, The boats separate and row off, each on its rounding course to the         beach, enclosing the mossbonkers, The net is drawn in by a windlass by those who stop ashore, Some of the fishermen lounge in their boats, others stand ankle-deep         in the water, pois`d on strong legs, The boats partly drawn up, the water slapping against them, Strew`d on the sand in heaps and windrows, well out from the water,         the green-back`d spotted mossbonkers.
