Oh to be Don Quixote! rambling down ambling spice routes I'd challenge the whispers in shadow I'd fend off the spectres of truth yeah to be Don Quixote delusion mule bring me wary where four-armed behemoths sigh heavy my scabard to carve them to gravy trotting and plotting my crickets sing sweet a soliloquy red dreams and scythe dreams in breezes a running through willow trees Oh OH to BE! deluded Donkey-O-Tee What winds will rot at my rind? no NO to BE Mister Donkey-O-Tee letting spiders creep in my mind.this is my first attempt at a serious rhyme scheme. you like?
