6 wolves

Strange dreams came last night.
A dream I woke up tired from.

I'm walking through a city that feels like Bed Stuy. Brooklyn if it were placed in the middle of the Mohave desert. The sun was low across the sky and lit all of the windows of old brownstones and apartments over storefronts. The sky was a painful blue. make you feel like squinting.
I was staying with someone I didn't want to stay with. Tho I appreciated their hospitality , the person I saw would only cause me grief. They wondered around as if they were alone.

I'd hoped no one would make eye contact. It was a house that filled gaps. many people came in and left. in particular a tall skinny indian guy with shoulder length hair. His name was hard to remember but i thought  sounded like the name of a star or at least the moon of a planet. I wondered if it were his real name. A DJ i think. Anyway , staying there would drive me crazy. I like personal property and space.

I left, seeking a job at the courthouse. Wondered how many knew their rights as jurors.
I get to the lobby of a circular white building and was taken aback by the level of technology.
The elevators were just machine less vents that whisked people to their desired floor. No waiting no buttons no doors. At the top was the same looking government office. the backs of people's heads who don't want to be there. Signing contracts for 500 dollar fees, but who knew how long a court case was. a stereo typical unhappy federal employee with braids and glasses and too much makeup spat out some monotone instructions with a side of NY accent and I tuned her out for a few minutes. After she pointed to the paper and asked me to sign, i told her I'd have to reconsider as a way out of saying I'll never sign this ever and i hope i never see you again.

I decided against it and left the building.

Back the way I came. the sun now at my back. I notice on my left , a frantic and slightly pale police officer running and falling over himself. He's soon followed by a police car and several  running men. Then armed soldiers not bothering to fire backward and camouflage jeeps marking hard rights from one direction. Then a flash the reddish orange hair of an Orangoutang . they awkwardly run like men in monkey suits . their knuckles flail around. Elephants and fast moving predators start spreading out.

Night comes faster than it should have.

I run into a store front whose door faced the corner instead of the flat side of the street. I was pulled in by my own character. A Shaman, a healer, a female knight of Gnoen. Her bangs sharper than Cleopatras and skin lit by the full moon. All I could make out were lips she kept her eyes on the door.

4 wolves or maybe wolverines walked in. their hair shaggy but some how they were illuminated as if fluorescent from within. their eyes shown an unhealthy weak blue, neon wild and electric.

They scoured around the store as if they were smelling our spirits. In comes a wolf that is lit differently. He's injured and stands on his hind legs. he falls over to the table. The wolves snarl and surround him . One even snaps just short of his neck, which was now very much NOT a canine's neck. But human and nude. The oil slick shoulder length hair looked matted with blood and debris. I knew him to be the man i met earlier from my host's house. I found myself taking a step back. He points an accusatory finger.

THAT WOLF HAS AN UNHEALTHY RELATIONSHIP WITH ANTSSSSSSsssss.

he passes out.

No one seems to pay attention to him however. The others in the room with me turn to see the shaman drinking down a beer and slowly turning into a red wolf. As she gulps down the endless gold beverage she starts to urinate like a fountain from her now Fox like legs. the stream starts to bubble and hmm as it almost hits the ground . But it swarms and swells and flies around  and out the window


is that wolf pissing bees?



no more popcorn before bed...

Husdon River Hop scotch

A strange dream last night.
I was , for some reason hired back into the ranks of the company that let me go.
It was the last time i'd worked for a company where i had to check in and clock out.
I could feel the administrators sneaking me by with out the CEO getting wind of it.
I didn't want to be there. But i was asked to come as a personal favor so i came.

The room was sterile, drop ceilings were short, day glow fluorescent lights making you forget what time of day it was. I walked across a larger room into a smaller one. They explained to me I was invited ( or required) to perform on the company boat ride around the New York Hudson River. ( Even tho, it was on the east river)

The boat had already taken off, but for some reason we couldn't go back. Something was wrong. Something was so important that i had to try and make my way to the ship. So we played a dangerous game of Hop scotch from nets to broken boats. These strange pink fish , to whom we 1st thought were sharks were the size of flattened car seats resembling what happens when Flounder eats a strict diet of Cotton Candy and red licorice . They lay in a thick layer just under the surface of the dark water like a scaled blanket. I 1st thought them dead but they were alive, giving themselves as living stepping stones. They opened their green and very human looking eyes , opening and closing their trap jaw mouths communicating in their fishy way that they were offering safe passage across their pepto pink bellies.

You can imagine my hesitation.

I had on Heels and a dress ( of course) , which made it no easier to traverse this watery obstacle course. My short, frazzled fat intern went on ahead first. Offering a hand back once he'd reached solid ground. His glasses barely hung on while his jet black haircut whipped against  his face.

we made it half way but had a very long way to go. I wasn't about to risk my life for something like that. If they left without me, then well...



I'm not sure what it meant but, I don't think i'll be getting on a boat anytime soon...
