Why do people comment on Poetry they do not understand or Like
I do not pretend to understand it...
It could be possibly... that Walt is pondering on his approaching death? ? ? ?
Even so I admire his wording.

Oh, white-bearded sage, what you write has gone forever into the mists of time and whatever the hell is a well-written word like media at this epoch of time has anything to do with the fences going up fast. Joe Poewhit has demonstrated his total ignorance, as usual!

This poem doesn't really make since. It's really not that great.

Note the high elevation of the spirit behind the words. Note: BOOKS - ART - the days clutter of that time. No, TV.-radio-movies-bombarding into our lives. Media was a well written word. How far down the ladder we have become at this epoch of time. Watch and be hypnotized by the show. Church was the center of life, America was the new land to till. [ SO THE FENCES ARE GOING UP FAST NOW ]

'ponder' (to weigh in the mind, to think about) I think is wrong. It contradicts 'wordless' in the first line. It is indicative of heavy thinking and not in tune with the free flight of the soul.

'thy free flight into the wordless...' _it is fine … when the soul is drawn to the space world …_ Walt Whitman mine respect …

A wonderful poem indeed by a master of the word. There's no doubt there. But I'm afraid you have left out a very important word.
