Distant and lonely. Black horse, big moon, And olives in my saddlebags. Although I know the roads, I will never arrive at Córdoba. For the field, for the breeze, Black horse, red moon. Death is watching me >From the towers of Córdoba. O, such a long road! O, my valiant horse! O, death is watching me >From the towers of Córdoba. Córdoba. Distant and lonely. -- Craig Daniel "mi'a te cmene ra lu ractu cafmi'a li'u ki'u le nu ra ctuca mi'a" -Alice in Wonderland ragnarok@pobox.com teucer@bnomic.org ------------------------ Yahoo!
