Lol, this is a VERY old picture that I staged years ago with real Canadian money. Our money looks different now but at the time, (I think around 2011), this is what it looked like, and I thought it would be funny to make it seem like it was getting raided by ants. The queen must've been pleased with THAT haul.

Moon Magic
Lunacy Lunedì Dance around your fantasy Make-believe Belief in faeries The moonlight shines ecstatically!
------------------
A poem I wrote on the 16th March 2021.

[Mythical Canary Info]
You were gone before my heart learned How to properly miss you; So I swallow the nails before my hands Can hang your photograph beside lovely things And waltz on shattered glass before my feet Can pretend to dance with yours beneath the moonlight.
Daydreaming in fairy-tales does not make them Any less make-believe, And the smiles we give passing strangers Are the same lies we tell each other Every time it rains.
Elian’s Dragon
I’ve told this story elsewhere but not here. I don’t know how it ends yet, but I’m excited to find out what happens next.
This is my son, Elian. He is four years old. He attends an in-home daycare with his younger sister, Aletta. He’s very sharp (if I do say so myself), and, being my son, he has quite the imagination, and endless encouragement to indulge it.
Several months ago, he found a glass landscaping marble at his daycare. Here it is:
Elian informed us that it was a “Dragon Tear”. (I suppose he does not know yet that dragon tears turn into Jelly Beans.) Elian was very proud of his dragon tear and talked about it constantly, wondering if he would find any more of them. Around that time I was frequenting craft stores for D&D terrain supplies, and I came across a bag of landscaping marbles for a dollar. I scooped it up, and once a week or so I would leave one of them on his windowsill to find. Elian was ecstatic! He told us that he now had his own “Finding Place” (c.f. Tumble Leaf), and kept the marbles in his Treasure Box with other precious items:
But after a few weeks he wondered where all of these dragon tears were coming from. He wondered...which dragon is putting all of these tears in the finding place? Why were they crying so many of them? He brought these questions to his mother, and she recommended that he write the dragon a letter and leave it in the finding place. So, he dictated it to her, word by word and occasionally letter by letter, as you can see:
Dear Dragon,
ATTBTQEW ATTE ... ATETT
Thank you for leaving such beautiful dragon tears for me!
ETTBTTEAAEET
Which of course translates to:
Dear Dragon, What is your name? Thank you for leaving such beautiful dragon tears for me! Elian
In the morning, the note was gone. For a few days, nothing appeared on his windowsill finding place. Then, one morning, he awoke to find that a reply had been left there:
(The reply on the windowsill, with four dragon tears, as Elian found it.)
Dear Elian,
Thank you for your lovely note. I am so glad that you like all the dragon tears I have left on your windowsill.
Don’t worry -- they are not tears of sadness, but of joy. I am happy that you are my friend. Thank you.
To answer your question, my name is...
Zalnidor!
P.S. Here is a poster of some friends of mine. Their names are Haku and Chihiro.
P.P.S. I will come to see you soon and stay for a while.
(A poster of Haku and Chihiro from Spirited Away.
So the dragon’s name was Zalnidor, and he was happy to share his tears of joy with his friend. Mystery solved. Elian was happy to have a dragon for a friend! “But wait,” you may interject. “Zalnidor said he was coming to visit for a while! Did a dragon really ever come to visit Elian?” Why yes, yes it did. But I’ll save that part of the story for next time....
A man becomes increasingly convinced that the clocks around him are trying to signal him a message.

Within the Soviet Union most of those expelled from the Communist Party were publicly branded either Trotskyists or Zinovievists. To Trotsky in exile this was vastly encouraging news - proof, he claimed in January 1936, that the 'strongest, most numerous and most hardened branch' of what became the Trotskyist Fourth International was in the Soviet Union. Both Stalin and Trotsky now inhabited, at least intermittently, a world of make-believe in which each fed the other's fantasies. Stalin's belief in mostly non-existent Russian Trotskyists infected Trotsky, whose pleasure at discovering these imaginary followers in turn persuaded Stalin that the Trotskyist menace was even worse than he had supposed.
