Hi,
I am almost tempted to write a "To the Ghost of Carl Sandburg" poem in =
return. It is so strange with the man: There is so much you can =
criticize about him: at times he is so repetitive, so often =
oversimplifying things (in his Newspaper Articles as well), a patriot to =
an (for me) almost unbearable degree (at times a socialist though); and =
then you come across poems like this, and they are, well, great poems in =
their way. Since I don't have his Complete Poems: when was it written?

Maybe you or others already know it.

works. I think I'll take it to bed with me tonight.=20
