Don Van Vliet (1941-2010)

O Captain! My Captain!

O Captain! My Captain! our fearful trip is done;

The ship has weather'd every rack, the prize we sought is won;

The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting,

While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring

(Walt Whitman)

Adieu Cœur-de-bœuf, frère capitaine : ton navire fou nous guide.
