Under a Spanish Sun 2

Don as in Quixote looked at me 
as if to say,
'Wednesday,
his look said nothing more and 
I began to wonder 

Nothing unusual in me wondering 
I'd been looking at the stars in the 
early morning sky and wondering why 
there seemed to be so few of them

and about the stream that always rushed,
did it dawdle when no one was watching?

The trees are inching upwards 
they know what they're doing 
and
I'm struggling to find my footing 

I think
it's fair comment to say 
the dragons win on
Wednesday,

Don nods 
and so does his donkey 

I wonder if there's oil.
