Work rating: Medium


THEY shall arise in the States, They shall report Nature, laws, physiology, and happiness; They shall illustrate Democracy and the kosmos; They shall be alimentive, amative, perceptive; They shall be complete women and men—their pose brawny and supple,         their drink water, their blood clean and clear; They shall enjoy materialism and the sight of products—they shall         enjoy the sight of the beef, lumber, bread-stuffs, of Chicago,         the great city; They shall train themselves to go in public to become orators and         oratresses; Strong and sweet shall their tongues be—poems and materials of poems         shall come from their lives—they shall be makers and finders; Of them, and of their works, shall emerge divine conveyers, to convey         gospels; Characters, events, retrospections, shall be convey`d in gospels —Trees, animals, waters, shall be convey`d,                       Death, the future, the invisible faith, shall all be convey`d.
