Whitman’s I Sing the Body Electric

Was it doubted that those who corrupt their own bodies enclose themselves Whitmans use of an interrogative tone here shows that he swears any decadency of the automobile trunk is to cover up a deeper issue. Eating disorders are just about deeper issues, non actually having much to do with food or lean those things are merely a distraction from the issues buried under distract behaviors. Other types of putrescence during Whitmans time might impart been premarital commove leading to pregnancy, sexual encounters with the same sex, and alcoholism. All of these are ways to confuse a voice without actually speaking.I believe that Whitman recognized using the corpse as an instrument of communication was a popular technique utilized by many, including himself. Whitman had a long term affair with a man, and to round he thus corrupted his body. As shown by the letters during a presentation in class, he concealed this relationship to anyone who inquired about his sexuality. The spare-time activity lines speak just as strongly as the first. In my interposition center we learned that without proper care of the body, all other move of ones being cease to exist entirely.Indeed if the body is not the someone, what is the soul? is a question I asked myself in many forms, many times. The body is the temple in which the soul, chakras, mind, intelligence, emotions, and lifeblood reside. No soul is unattached to the body. I believe that as a writer Whitman connected with his soul on a opposite level through his words. I have felt this connection myself when makeup poetry regarding my eating disorder. Whitmans ability to write allowed him to see his body as neither male nor female , thus allowing him to see what the body is real capable of.The body is simply a vessel that moves, breathes, eats, and sleeps. However, in Whitmans words, the body is the soul it is something that can be corrupted or worshiped. All things disport the soul, but the contact and odo r of men and women please the soul well. The discussion ot a body as neither male nor temale is what is g tor the soul, jibe to Whitman. A body is not worthy of treating well because it has the anatomy of a male or the anatomy of a female if the body is the soul, as Whitman says, then the body is deserving of being treated well, period.The treatment of the ody is something that is holistic, not only if a matter of treating the body with food or treating the soul with meditation. My recovery is not Just about eating the proper add of fruits, vegetables, starches, proteins, and fats. It is also about doing what is good for my soul, and that is what Whitman means by that line. Any corruption of the body, whether it malnourishment, sexual exploitation, or anything else capable of corrupting the vessel itself, must be cured holistically. Overall, Whitman makes a claim about the body that is indeed minded(p) to the present.The body is electric in all that it contains. The body is mo re than Just skin and bone. In the words of Whitman, O I these are not the parts and poems of the body only, but of the soul, O I say directly these are the soul He concludes with his notion that the body is the soul. I believe that I agree wholeheartedly with that sentiment without acknowledging my soul, the recovery of my body would have never been possible to discontinue corrupting my body, thus discontinuing concealing myself. Recognizing my soul as intertwined with the body helped me have the most holistic recovery possible.
