My first exposure to Walt Whitman was, O Captain, My Captain.
Walt Whitman, not Walt Disney, or boo booo of a ghost– you frick me you love me you spam for a roast, to roast a spam big bam bam, spam the meat of fright, alight, down slowly through the chicken meat.
Leaves of Grass was self-published in 1855. Obviously O Captain, My Captain was not part of the original Leaves of Grass. Abraham Lincoln was assassinated in April 0f 1865.
