Every Atom | No. 183

whoever you are

This is the blank book in which I recorded lines that touched me. I got it for my sixteenth birthday and have recorded poems therein for many years since. There's a mighty lot of Whitman. The poem that forms the hollow—or superfull, depending on how you see it—center of this comic (reproduced here in my sixteen-year-old handwriting) was the first Whitman verse I included.
