Windmill


This is a picture from The Reduced Shakespeare Company.  In this new year it captures my imagination, makes me wonder what windmills will appear, which ones must be fought, and which deserve to be ignored. Sometimes windmills hide what we are supposed to pay attention to...

It is a new year.
I wonder which windmill
Will appear
On the horizon:
It begs
To be claimed;
It begs
To be fought;
Maybe perhaps it begs
To be ignored:
The rest of the landscape
Calling
Calling
Calling
Sometimes even hiding
In the shadow of the windmill.
