Two Nations on a Table-top

---

On my desktop sway two flags lazily in the winter breeze: the taller is Russia, standing proud on a sculpted shaft, Siberian snow straddling both democracy and socialism, and reaching out for the sky. The shorter, bent, rising from a pen-holder beside a headless knight is a sellotaped Iran, proclaiming the Almighty's glory twenty-two times over faith and blood.
