"In a Sufi fable, the elephant fell in love with a firefly, and imagined that it shone for no other creature but he; and when it flew long distances away, he was confident that at the center of its light was the image of an elephant."

For years I've been trying to remember where I first read that. It's from Ghost Story by Peter Straub. Now I wonder if there is an actual fable.

Art for Ah Pook Is Here, an unfinished graphic novel collaboration between William S. Burroughs and Malcolm Mc Neil. "Originally conceived as a graphic novel in the pictographic format of the surviving Mayan codices, the project --eight years in the making-- consisted of over 100 illustrations by Malcolm McNeill, 30 in full color and about 50 pages of text." Trippy.

Also please "dig" Jordan Crane's dynamite cover for Uptight #3.

Bonus for PC users: the Insomniac Elf video game. I am not able to play it. :(
