Okay...I think I recognize this except that there appears to be an S missing. Is there possibly an S that got skipped in the last line?

... goddamn it.

Hey, it's a fairly wordy passage. Mistakes happen. :)

Turning and turning on the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the center cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world

That's it.

Excuse me, it's time for my weekly Slouch towards Bethlehem.

Yes! Sorry it took so long. I'd assumed that passage of Walt Whitman would be recognized faster.

I don't actually know much Walt Whitman. We read some in high school and I never bothered to explore more of it.

Here's a relatively easy one.
