Salute to Walt Whitman- Fernando Pessoa Here from a place in my heart, I salute you, Female as I am, and unknown, Should I be praising Emily, Plath or Achmatova? But you started it Pessoa! with your Alvaro comparing himself to Whitman, not content to admit to a greatness of your own and now I find dear Mr. Ginsberg confessing to his greatness in epic manner, name dropping from Socrates to Michelangelo admitting faults in the same breath-tracking his enlightenment and if it was written tongue in cheek, I missed it. How I admire the great poets that wade into the mainstream appearing where the greatest wrongs appear, risking even death for their beliefs, celebrated by those who embrace their point of view, but what of the unknown poets in the world; so many whose work is equally astounding, yet unexposed. Musings on every subject known to man, set down in metaphor and rhyme makes me wonder what brings immortal recognition Is it from making a devoted study or from mixing in the right circles? The hallowed halls of academia or is it some -one's tiny jounal of handwritten poems waiting for discovery, the enlightenment of the next century? Poets, don't often, answer to their fame - writing what's inside of them for those to come. Thursday, 06 September, 2001 I wrote this poem one morning (Thursday, 06 September, 2001)after I had read a poem by Alan Ginsberg in the 1995 edition of The Best American Poetry. I had never seen the poem he referred to "Salute to Whitman"by Fernando Pessoa and today when I found it on the web Friday, March 01, 2002, I was suprised to see how similar our opening lines were. Here are current links to the poems mentioned https://issuu.com/hbarbas/docs/1997_salutations_to_pessoa_ginsberg_h_barbas https://modpo2015.wordpress.com/poems-of-note/fernando-pessoa-alvaro-de-campos-salute-to-walt-whitman/
