To the Editor: ( NY TIMES)

Why is the American dream defined solely in terms of owning one’s own home? Why is this particularly American?

Why isn’t the American dream ever spoken of in terms of justice, equality, freedom and responsibility? Does the very definition of who we are as a people and nation have to boil down to things and owning them — however necessary and desirable?

What Walt Whitman said of himself, Camden may also say of itself....

 

Poem: "Ah Poverties, Wincings, and Sulky Retreats," by Walt Whitman.

 

Ah poverties, wincings, and sulky retreats,

Ah you foes that in conflict have overcome me,

(For what is my life or any man's life but a conflict with foes,

the old, the incessant war?)

You degradations, you tussle with passions and appetites,

You smarts from dissatisfied friendships, (ah wounds the

sharpest of all!)

You toil of painful and choked articulations, you meannesses,

You shallow tongue-talks at tables, (my tongue the shallowest of

any;)

You broken resolutions, you racking angers, you smother'd

ennuis!

Ah think not you finally triumph, my real self has yet to come

forth,

It shall yet march forth o'ermastering, till all lies beneath me,

It shall yet stand up the soldier of ultimate victory.
