Thank You Don Quixote
There you are!
I thought you gone
the way of the record player.
Toilet lid tied to your hand,
a light saber held up high,
tilting at metal windmills
on a Kansas prairie....

Castle Builder
You bring whimsical words
of glittering, gold-filled escapades
and of sparkling star-dust dreams.
Dreams of gallant adventure and peril,
with a Don Quixote way of tilting windmills....

A Little 's'
My friend, Don Quixote, a stubborn fool
Didn't own a horse, so he rode a mule
First he said, 'What's next?'
Then he tried, 'What next?'
Huh? What? ~ He was a little 's' in school...

Wile E Coyote
Death defying, Wile E Coyote
Was never a real hero unlike Don Quixote
Wile E couldn’t outsmart Road Runner’s tricks
Not surprisingly he always ended up in a fix!...

Old don for a new dawn
In public tanTrump Don has won
As people opted for new dawn,
Voted less a winner,
More against old banner,
Don Quixote has returned as don.

Cortez Flowers In Spain
Through the
Hills of Spain,
Pink and white
Cortez flowers
Adorning the
Enchanted blue windmills
Underneath this gray December sky,
Are Don Quixote and his esquire
Poncho, riding through the Spanish flames...

I Quixote
I am strong
I ride
With my
Faithful
Friend
By my side
I'll fight
The Mill
Until it
Bends
To my
Will
I see the world
In a way
No other can
See

Plain
Is It

If you knew
If you knew...
That the one who tore you in two, and
Made you
One with the earth,
And
The one who glues you,
Unites you, petal by petal,
Contributes to your happiness...
If you knew...?
Would you shed another tear?

Wellness 4 Carolyn
we all seem to suffer yet again, again,
but worst of all is the lonesome plane,
we want you well and free of pain,
sweet Carolyn arising,
well again...
our wanted horizon,
bring courage within the flame...
by illness cauterising...

Nature Ho Ho Ho Don Quixote Lance
With a,
Heigh Ho,
Heigh Ho,
Heigh Ho
In defense of nature we go
Like Night's on Crusade
But i fear we will need
More than seven dwarfs
Unless they are standing on the shoulder of giants
And holding Don Quixote lance
Because we are up against
Our mortal enemy
Hephaestus...

Reaching Dulcineas Village
Sancho Panza loaned his trusty donkey to Don Quixote
they had finally reached the village of the gorgeous Dulcinea.
Baskets brimming with excited sunflowers would be delivered.
The squire congratulated himself for getting the knight-errant here.
He sat back to watch the performance, as Quixote began to sing....

Turning
if you kick
my kick
stand
my
bike
will fall
down
and all
the base
ball cards
and clothes
pins will cease
to
spin
and make
noise again
like a brok
en muffler
or a motor
cycle now
just sits
there where
a don Quixote
kid kicks it and
says to
his friend
Sancho it's
dead...

Sancho Panza
Sancho Panza told Marisancha to pass the plate of Gazpacho
she was screwy and forgot the cue and passed the plate to Cascajo
Sancho hit Mari, Casca hit Panza
Alonso rushed in, gravy bonanza
"Don Quixote de la Mancha" hailed Don Miguel's Alonso Quijano...

Pour Moi
Idealism
versus
reality
In hope
that Quixote
prevails
Disappointed
again
reading the trends
Materiality
draining
the grail
Peer pressure
determines
what happens
Not some
high minded
value or tome
Greediness trumps
what our virtue
holds dear
Self interest
hitting
— closer to home

Dulcinea
Dulcinea sits in wonder
as Don Quixote wanders about
fighting his brood of windmill warriors
white sails billowing in the wind
Dulcinea knows his illusion
confusing victories for the spoils
while he conquers his unseen enemy
she ponders her life alone
Dulcinea, Quixote's allusion
beauty fair and loving deep
like the windmills in his mind
alas, she is also not real...

The Wiliest Bird
THE WILIEST BIRD
My hero is a wily bird,
so gutsy, he's thought quite absurd,
for when he's down and almost out,
he's up and fit for six more bouts.
He'll be blown up, he'll be blown down,
whatever, it is turned around
to energize another go;
through all adversity, he'll grow.
Ever onwards, never wilting
at Roadrunner ever tilting
like his hero, Don Quixote,
my hero, Wile E. Coyote !
Alan McAlpine Douglas
(in response to request to write about my hero)...
