Why did Judge Holden want to kill the Kid? What was the meaning of their relation?

ah, blood meridian, monsieur? that novel is the sark and chaparral of literature, the filament whereon rode the remuda of highbrow, corraled out of some destitute hacienda upon the arroya, quirting and splurting with main and with pyrolatrous coagulate of lobated grandiloquence. our eyes rode over the pages, monsieur, of that slatribed azotea like argonauts of suttee, juzgados of swole, bights and systoles of walleyed and tyrolean and carbolic and tectite and scurvid and querent and creosote and scapular malpais and shellalagh. we scalped, monsieur, the gantlet of its esker and led our naked bodies into the rebozos of its mennonite and siliceous fauna, wallowing in the jasper and the carnelian like archimandrites, teamsters, combers of cassinette scoria, centroids of holothurian chancre, with pizzles of enfiladed indigo panic grass in the saltbush of our vigas, true commodores of the written page, rebuses, monsieur, we were the mygale spiders too and the devonian and debouched pulque that settled on the frizzen studebakers, listening the wolves howling in the desert while we saw the judge rise out of a thicket of corbelled arches, whinstone, cairn, cholla, lemurs, femurs, leantos, moonblanched nacre, uncottered fistulas of groaning osnaburg and kelp, isomers of fluepipe and halms awap of griddle, guisado, pelancillo.

This is literal gibberish, for anyone who's just wondering if they simply lack the vocabulary.

I'm really stoned and actually felt like a retard until the end of the first line and realized it was nonsense.

They're (mostly) real words, just not in any coherent order beyond the appearance of it.

>Why did Judge Holden want to kill the Kid?
The Kid was a whiny bitch who demonstrated mercy and compassion at various points throughout the text and also refused to shoot at Holden when he had the chance despite having a reputation as a bit of a sharpshooter. Holden is presented with a supernatural affinity for violence so it probably upset him that this cracker failed to get with the program.

But Holden himself was a supernatural entity, and could not be killed by a mere man.
