Rather than focusing on religious or spiritual matters, Leaves of Grass focuses primarily on the body and the material world. With few exceptions, its poems do not rhyme or follow standard rules for meter and line length.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eLeaves of Grass\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e is also notable for its discussion of delight in sensual pleasures during a time when such candid displays were considered immoral. The book was highly controversial during its time for its explicit sexual imagery, and Whitman was subject to derision by many contemporary critics.
