Fifty-seven short pieces about the future of America, & the American Dream. The title refers to a passage in Walt Whitman’s 'Democratic Vistas', in which he states: 'In the future of these States, must arise poets immenser far, and make great poems of death.' Not poems as such, these poetic prose pieces explore a dimension of eternity and a new spirituality that is beginning to emerge in America.
