Read this excerpt from the poem "Lincoln Looked.”Lincoln looked forward and saw a divided house cannot stand.He looked ahead, beyond the brimof his stovepipe hat, and where there were many people, he saw one.Lincoln looked up at the clouds turning in the sky and knew thatthe nation was doing the same thingin time.It was time for a change. Lincolnlooked deep within himself and searchedfor the recipe for a new country madefrom so many wild and unique ingredients.
