Repost: The Peyote of Don Quixote An old knight rides an old horse And toasts a wine of mescal sauce He wears a favor in his hat That makes him look a Cheshire cat His spirits wields a youthful shield That fights corruption every field And charges giants head to head With lance and sauce till they are fled He sits his saddle skin and bone Leather face and muscles of stone His vision full of flailing arms Tall structures standing fields and farms Time has tolled his hair away and His hands are sinews of dismay Dragons cannot stand his dree, this Knight of glory Don Quixote Excuse his trampling of the grass He cannot let corruption pass Enemies stand every tree and He can’t let the matter be He’s a rune of a gallant way On a boon that exists today |

Liked your descriptions of our stumbling hero, Don Quixote. Never connected him with peyote. Silly me! Good to have you point it out! Shenachie |
