Walt Whitman

Here you will find the Poem Of The Visage Of Things of poet Walt Whitman

Of The Visage Of Things

OF the visages of things--And of piercing through to the accepted
 hells beneath;
 Of ugliness--To me there is just as much in it as there is in
 beauty--And now the ugliness of human beings is acceptable to
 me;
 Of detected persons--To me, detected persons are not, in any respect,
 worse than undetected persons--and are not in any respect worse
 than I am myself;
 Of criminals--To me, any judge, or any juror, is equally criminal--
 and any reputable person is also--and the President is also.
