The earth is a colored thing	A
See the red clays and the umbers and salt greasy of the mountains	B
See the clustered and wandering greens of plains and hillsides	C
The leaf greens bush greens water plant and snow greens	D
Of gardens and forests	E
See the reds of flowers hibiscus poppy geranium	F
The rose red of little flowers may flowers primroses	G
The harlequin shades of sweet peas orchids pansies	H
The madders saffrons chromes of still waters	I
The silver and star blues the wine blues of seas and oceans	B
Observe the stars at nighttime name the color of them	J
Count and recount the hues of clouds at sunset and at dawn	K
And the colors of the races of men	L
What are they	M
And what are we	N
We the people without a race	O
Without a language	P
Of all races and of none	Q
Of all tongues and one imposed	R
Of all traditions and all pasts	S
With no tradition and no past	T
A patchwork and an altar piece	U
Vague as sea mist	V
Myriad as forest trees	H
Living into a present	W
Building a future	X
Our color is the vari colored world	Y
No colors clash	Z
All clash and change	A2
And in changing new colors come and go and dominate and remain	B2
And no one shall say which remain	B2
Since those that have vanished return	C2
And those no man has seen take the light and are	D2
	-
Where else in all America are we so symbolized	E2
As in this hall	F2
White columns polished like glass	G2
A dome and a dome	H2
A balcony and a balcony	N
Stairs and the balustrades to them	J
Yellow marble and red slabs of it	I2
All mounting spearing flying into color	X
Color round the dome and up to it	I2
Color curving kite flying to the second dome	H2
Light dropping pitching down upon the color	X
Arrow falling upon the glass bright pillars	I
Mingled colors spinning into a shape of white pillars	I
Fusing cooling into balanced shafts of shrill and interthronging light	J2
This is America	K2
This vast confused beauty	N
This staring restless speed of loveliness	I
Mighty overwhelming crude of all forms	I
Making grandeur out of profusion	Q
Afraid of no incongruities	I
Sublime in its audacity	N
Bizarre breaker of moulds	I
Laughing with strength	L2
Charging down on the past	T
Glorious and conquering	A
Destroyer builder	X
Invincible pith and marrow of the world	Y
An old world remaking	A
Whirling into the no world of all colored light	J2
