41. America singing, America dancing
I hear America singing.I must say,
America’s voice is loud;
America’s voice is good,
And soul-stirring, too.
I see America dancing.
I must say,
Although America’s dance
Wants to illumine the world,
It ends by frightening the world
Not only beyond the world-imagination,
    But
Beyond her own loftiest imagination, too.
Sri Chinmoy, The Golden Boat, part 18, Agni Press, 1974
