Early poem.
It consists of three sizains (18 lines).
"When I have to die, I'd like it to be
On a battlefield, when you're carrying it inside you
With your soul still wrapped around you
With the intoxicating tumult of battle,
And the rude thrill that fights give
The clear, masculine clash of the sword"...
