Why did Whitman use the metaphors of Lincoln as "captain" and "father" in this poem? What are the connotations of those words? Why might those metaphors be appropriate for Abraham Lincoln?

subject: why anyone can be a genius.

occasion: moving forward in life.

audience: average person

purpose: to push you further in life

speaker: many famous geniuses.

poem is a matter of rhyme, but like ben frank said, life is a matter of time.

we have great minds, from places of all kinds, such as yu kaw la chi tie, (now im switching languages because yu kaw was japanese.)

てちハラスイヒイス, てちラスイヒイス

てちのちみスイヒイス.

you are a genius, well not yet, but you are capable, and that is a bet.
