Calamus 45

Part of the cluster CALAMUS.

45.

1FULL of life, sweet-blooded, compact, visible, I, forty years old the Eighty-third Year of The States, To one a century hence, or any number of centuries  
 hence,
To you, yet unborn, these, seeking you.
2When you read these, I, that was visible, am become  
 invisible;
Now it is you, compact, visible, realizing my poems,  
 seeking me,
Fancying how happy you were, if I could be with  
 you, and become your lover;
Be it as if I were with you. Be not too certain but I  
 am now with you.
