Recently a 47,000 word series called "Manly Health and Training" penned by Walt Whitman was discovered. Let's take a look!quote:The object we have in view is the manly form. The tight and taut manly form. Gaze upon its countenance! Cover it in meat and essential juices! quote:Yes, reader, we teach that man must be perfect in his body first—we start with that as our premises, our foundation. Perhaps that man should best be perfect as viewed upon my front porch or perhaps the parlor where healthy and manly calisthenics are performed as worldly example. quote:The manly thrust is the noble exemplar of the energetic physique. Honestly there's so much. I can't be bothered. I keep hearing that Walt Whitman was a gay man laboring under the oppressive weight of a world unable to accept his true self but I just don't see it! I just want some great health tips from our friend and neighbor Walt Whitman! |

WHEN I heard the learn’d astronomer; When the proofs, the figures, were ranged in columns before me; When I was shown the charts and the diagrams, to add, divide, and measure them; When I, sitting, heard the astronomer, where he lectured with much applause in the lecture-room, How soon, unaccountable, I became tired and sick; Till rising and gliding out, I wander’d off by myself, In the mystical moist night-air, and from time to time, Look’d up in perfect silence at the stars.

And as the sun crests above the hill And the wren has chirped and eaten his fill Twilight looms above the wood And that is when i wash my balls

I would love it if Mark Twain could come back to life once every couple decades use the medium of literature to pwn contemporary idiots. I'm pretty sure he would single handedly crush the gluten free fad

"PASSING stranger! you do not know how longingly I look upon you, You must be he I was seeking, or she I was seeking, (it comes to me, as of a dream,) I have somewhere surely lived a life of joy with you, All is recall’d as we flit by each other, fluid, affectionate, chaste, matured, You grew up with me, were a boy with me, or a girl with me, I ate with you, and slept with you—your body has become not yours only, nor left my body mine only, You give me the pleasure of your eyes, face, flesh, as we pass—you take of my beard, breast, hands, in return, I am not to speak to you—I am to think of you when I sit alone, or wake at night alone, I am to wait—I do not doubt I am to meet you again, I am to see to it that I do not lose you." -Walt Whitman "To a Stranger"
