Tombstone

 Tombstone

When I die, don't let go of my horse

on the stones of my burning Pasture:

strike his vaunted back,

with the golden spur, until he killed him.

 

One of my sons must ride it

in a greenish leather saddle,

that drags across the stony and brown ground

Copper plates, bells and clappers.

 

Thus, with the Thunderbolt and the struck copper,

trampling of hooves, blood of the Brown,

perhaps the sound of molten gold is pretended

 

that, in vain – Senseless and vagabond blood –

I tried to forge, in my strange Singing,

to the complexion of my Beast and the Sun of the World!
