The Moor's Last Sigh

In another rotation of the earth, I should be gone.

From this part of the world :-)

I am reminded of just one phrase 'The Moor's Last Sigh' which found its way into the lexicon from the story of the fall of Granada, and its king Boabdil who, after the surrender, standing on a high mound, looked back and heaved his last sigh.

The city where I have lived in for over 3 years now is a magnificent city. Serious. Just that I did not fit in. So I have myself to blame. In my judgement of the scheme of life which this city offers, it is a superb place for anyone who is young or rich or married or happy. Adjectives used here progress from the simple to the complicated.

I am none of the four. That for me, indeed, would be The Moor's Last Sigh
