Episode 22: Part 7 of "Song of Myself" by Walt Whitman

from Selah Poetry Podcast · host Rory Hatchel

In this episode we continue looking at Walt Whitman's epic, "Song of Myself." We read part 7, and discuss why anyone would say it is lucky to die. We investigate the notion of all being good, immortality, but more importantly, we remember that we are mates and companions of all. Remember: "I am the mate and companion of people, all just as immortal and fathomless as myself."
