Quixotic Quests

We
tilt
         at
           windmills
that
do not
                turn
                as
                 our
hearts
and
              minds
              in
turmoil
churn
                 we
                 try
to
change
              what
              cannot
be
and
               in our
               pride
ignore
Thee
                we
                  believe
we
can
                   so
                   try
and
try
      and 
              deep
              inside
we
live
                this
                lie

I like how this was inspired by the great DON Quixote!!
