Sense Sonnet - Pumper

 El Ganador


I am a La Mancha windmill.

El Ganador is now my name,

Because a battle did fulfill

My destiny for winning fame.

Don Quixote with Sancho rode

To me and Quixote yelled out,

"Giant" which I knew did forbode

A bad encounter, and no doubt

The kook charged at me with his lance.

I broke it, threw him from his horse.

He bemoaned his defeated stance.

Then Sancho  helped him up of course.


Tale moral is how delusions be

Like tilting at windmills like me.
