Public Domain Poetry And Stories - Not My Enemies Ever Invade Me by Walt Whitman Public domain poetry and public domain stories from the literary greats of yesteryear.
Not my enemies ever invade me - no harm to my pride from them I fear;
But the lovers I recklessly love - lo! how they master me!
Lo! me, ever open and helpless, bereft of my strength!
Utterly abject, grovelling on the ground before them.
