“In The Shadow Of The Ghost Of Don Quixote” — Image by kenne
There stand the remains of a hopeless battle
watched over by the ghost of Don Quixote.
Although the ghost whispers are never heard, and
try as I may to distinguish between fantasy and reality,
every windmill stands in the shadow of the ghost of Don Quixote
giving this giant machine of man a human spirit
leaving us to decide which is the more ideal vision –
the practical but mundane image of a windmill, or
that of the idealistic dreamer of the impossible dream –
in the end, we all see only what we wish to see.
