About

Originally printed as “Shut not your Doors to me proud Libraries,” it is Whitman’s second poem in his book Drum-taps (1865), and appears in Sequel to Drum-Taps (1865) and is eventually folded into his lifetime book of poetry called Leaves of Grass.

Shut Not Your Doors Annotated

Shut not your doors to me proud libraries,
For that which was lacking on all your well-fill'd shelves, yet
needed most, I bring,
Forth from the war emerging, a book I have made,
The words of my book nothing, the drift of it every thing,
A book separate, not link'd with the rest nor felt by the intellect,
But you ye untold latencies will thrill to every page.
