TRIBUTE TO CERVANTES: An accolade for quixotic idealists
 
	Why be captive to dreams
	when imagination can be freed
	from iron fetters?

	Must we be obsessed
	about Byzantine scripts
	when facts are obvious?

	Isn't truth at the edge of dreams
	even if the donkeys of delusion are stubborn?

	O Catalina!
	¿Por qué estamos separados?
	Must people appear as lunatics
	in order to be sane?

	Catalina sabe la respuesta.
	I beg your forgiveness:
	but wait –
	is there a tavern
	not far away?


Ella:     (laughing) What foolish bunk!

Juanita:  Of course. To celebrate & laugh at the wondrous absurdity of life –
          is that not a noble goal?

Shu:      Ah, it's so easy to become enamored by windmills.
