In the Eye of the Bull

• It was a great bullfight in Seville, Spain, in a
  way. Rosa and I were excited about being
  introduced to the young good looking matador, he
  must had been no older than twenty-one.

• A young couple was sitting about ten-feet away
  from us in the arena, Americans like us. The bull
  had gored the young matador he had caught the
  blind spot with his eye when the young matador
  swung his cape in front of his horns, and for a
  second couldn't see those long thick horns, and
  gored him in his armpit, throwing him clear in
  the air above him. Rosa looked my way caught my
  attention, and shrugged her shoulders to show her
  discontent.

• To my understanding there had not been a goring
  in a long while here, it was 1997. The second
  matador was called in, to replace the wounded
  one, while he was being taken out on a stretcher
  both being about the same height, weight, built,
  and age. Both matadors were slack in their
  approach, and careless, a lack of skills it
  appeared, it took the second matador six times
  sticking the sword into the back extended hump of
  the bull, before it dropped to its knees, he had
  missed the mark every time. The bull was a young,
  skinny bull, weak to start out with, but he
  wasn't careless, and he had courage.
