One poem by this author ends "he spoke. And drank rapidly a glass of water." In that poem, a man praises the "heroic happy dead" and expresses his love for the "land of the pilgrims." One poem by this author contains the line "straightway the silver bird looked grave" and features a narrator who prays to see "Christ (of His mercy infinite)." In one poem, this author wrote of a man who rode a "watersmooth stallion" and asks "how do you like your (*) blueeyed boy / Mister Death?" One of this poet's title characters repeats "there is some shit I will not eat" after stating "I will not kiss your fucking flag" and is said to be, "unless statistics lie," "more brave than me: more blond than you." In another work of his, the husband of "noone" lives in a place with "up so floating many bells down." For 10 points, name this poet of "i sing of olaf glad and big" and "anyone lived in a pretty how town."
