Thoughts on Walt Whitman

Alan Moore's speech left me more confused than inspired.
He suggested Walt Whitman was a flake
but that the old dead poets should drownd us and support us in the salted sea of Western Literature.
I am not so sure

I liked that Walt Whitman's poem today was about the laborers- not race not ethnic heritage
the work that we do that contributes to our nation, not where we came from.
