This excerpt from Walt Whitman's "Song of Myself" finds the speaker asking the reader candid questions while alone at dusk. He acknowledges contradicting himself but says he contains multitudes. The speaker waits on the doorstep, asking who has finished their work and meal for the day and wishes to walk with him before he departs, hoping it's not too late.

Song of Myself Walt Whitman By Dayna Ingraham Lines 1054-1064
Look in my face while I snuff the sidle of evening (Talk honestly, No one else hears you And I stay only a minute longer) Do I contradict myself? Very well then I contradict myself, (I am large , I contain multitudes.)
I concentrate toward them that are nigh, I wait on the door-slab. Who has done his days work? Who will soonest be through with his supper? Who wishes to walk with me? Will you speak before I am gone? Will you prove already too late?
