Explore "Realities" by Walt Whitman on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
1. As I walk, solitary, unattended, / Around me I hear that _éclat_ of the world -- politics, produce, / The announcements of recognised things -- science, / The approved growth of cities, and the spread of inventions.
I see the ships, (they will last a few years,) / The vast factories, with their foremen and workmen, / And hear the endorsement of all, and do not object to it.
