A Legend Without a Map

her eyes have seen
   a thousand roads 
   each downwind of the other

Definitely downwind Maureen so THEY don't know who is approaching. In Egypt they say, "Every road leads to a perfume shop." And sure enough. I was there so many years ago, met a guy, at night at the Great Pyramids, who was a guide; and since the French language light show was playing, and je parle pas Francais in pue, I went with this guy; bribed a guard to climb a pyramid; went inside one by flashlight, and ther things, BUT the final outcome was, "Now, please come to my uncle's perfume shop."

Very good! Sounds like my Sat Nav that I've lost and can't find anywhere.

Always downwind super Mo, otherwise they’d sense what’s coming, or perhaps just go along with the usual human trait to bury our heads and let it happen, thought provoking, cheers David

Keep your head busy and your hands to yourself, or is it keep your hands busy and your head to yourself, or it’s both… xomo
