Thanks Again, Elena
I guess you never know how far a post might reach. When I wrote about a scam email I received from a fake Elena Ferrante, I really wasn’t trying to do anything other than report out about a new kind of scam email I received. I didn’t even realize what a big deal Elena Ferrante is or how mysterious she is, though my search on the name had given me some clues. After I posted about it, I saw that she

“The Dream Poem"
One evening I lay down thinking
wouldn’t it be nice for once
to dream that one poetic image
which would liberate me to write.
As I slept, I dreamt of a huge black lake,
so big and so black it can’t be described.
I was unsure if this was a dream
or if I was really just sleeping,
not dreaming at all, so I felt
around on the banks of my sleep
for a smooth, flat stone to skip
across the surface in the hope
that the ripples, when they collided,
might form that image and tell me
this was the dream I had waited for.
But I couldn’t find a stone. The only
things on the shore were the feathers
of a shredded pillow. When I grasped these
one by one and threw them into the lake,
they flew away to form the stars.”
