To comprehend Emerson
Is to be a master
Of Orientalism
And Oriental Studies
Ahead of Edward Said.
A poet of Man and Nature
And Over Soul, Over Mind,
He is transcendental
Open to new thought and idea,
Always in quest of knowledge and wisdom.
He is a poet of new routes,
Maps and searches,
Lands and visions,
Development of human thought and tradition,
New light and new thinking.
