Spirit~ Brocho That Would Not Be Broken Of Dancing

Whoot! First Spirit vid! dances

Well, technically this is not an AMV, as it's a poem and the music is just a bunch of different tracks.
Either way the poem is beautiful.
Poem: "Brocho That Would Not Be Broken Of Dancing" by Vachel Lindsay

Songs: various X-Ray Dog, and the last track is called "Arwen's Fate" form LotR

Full Poem:
A little colt -- bronco, loaned to the farm
To be broken in time without fury or harm,
Yet black crows flew past you, shouting alarm,
Calling "Beware," with lugubrious singing...
The butterflies there in the bush were romancing,
The smell of the grass caught your soul in a trance,
So why be a-fearing the spurs and the traces,
O bronco that would not be broken of dancing?

You were born with the pride of the lords great and olden
Who danced, through the ages, in corridors golden.
In all the wide farm-place the person most human.
You spoke out so plainly with squealing and capering.
With whinnying, snorting, contorting, and prancing,
As you dodged your pursuers, looking askance.
With Greek-footed figures, and Parthenon paces.
O bronco that would not be broken of dancing.

The grasshoppers cheered. "Keep whirling," they said
The insolent sparrows called from the shed,
"If men will not laugh, make them wish they were dead."
But arch were your thoughts, all malice displacing,
Though the horse-killers came, with snake-whips advancing.
You bantered and cantered away from your last chance.
And they scourged you, with Hell in their speech and their faces,
O bronco that would not be broken of dancing.

"Nobody cares for you," rattled the crows,
As you dragged the whole reaper, next day, down the rows.
The three mules held back, yet you danced on your toes.
You pulled like a racer, and kept the mules chasing.
You tangled the harness with bright eyes side-glancing,
While the drunk driver bled you -- a pole for a lance --
And the giant mules bit at you -- keeping their places.
O bronco that would not be broken of dancing.

In that last afternoon your boyish heart broke.
The hot wind came down like a sledge-hammer stroke.
The blood-sucking flies to a rare feast awoke.
And they searched out your wounds, your death-warrant tracing.
And the merciful men, their religion enhancing,
Stopped the red reaper, to give you a chance.
Then you died on the prairie, and scorned all disgraces,
O bronco that would not be broken of dancing. (1914)
