No More Magic
by AviI was just sitting there, looking at the moon, feeling warm and sleepy when I saw something going through the sky. Flying right across the moon was a bicycle! My bike! I could see it was green. And someone was riding it, like a witch on a broom. The person was all hunched over, not very big, with a long black-and-white checked cape flowing out behind. And the warlock--for that's who it was--had a three-cornered cap on, and from under that cap hung a long scarf, or maybe even a long braid. There was no question about it. That's exactly what I saw.
