What is Analyzing "Patrolling Barnegat" Poem about?

The poem "Patrolling Barnegat" by Walt Whitman uses language and imagery to vividly describe a raging storm. Written in 14 lines of hexameter with end rhymes, the free verse creates a sense of immediacy and uncertainty. Military language likens the storm to a battle against nature. Personification of the violent sea as muttering and laughing evokes a sense of chaos. References to a "savage trinity" replacing God and "demoniac laughter" suggest the storm has a religious or spiritual menace.
