dreaming in bad poetry
by laura
Last night was mostly a sleepless night. I’m not sure why. Our bedroom was cool despite the ninety degree day. I did sleep for an hour or so and had a dream.
I was on a bed with several people. One of them was a mixed media artist and poet. She had a volume of poems printed on white paper and pasted into a turquoise and yellow book. I opened it and this was one of them:
i’m sorry the media got involved
it was only meant for us
you have to admit
the sign on the door did say cash only
I was a little embarrassed for her, but then a Cuban man showed up and he had a family issue and needed my help. My dog Selkie was also running around and my grandfather was on the bed too. I woke up and jotted the dream down right away. I have no idea what it means.
Why on earth am I sharing this?
Let me make up for it with some link love for the coffee drinkers and writers out there:
Here’s a mint idea.


Dreams are slippery things………….

I saw that line somewhere…once. Maybe in a dream.
True though, huh?
LOVE your links…the creamer…and I have wanted to make the ice cubes for a long time…a must do this summer.
As always…a great post.
Laura…I love the title of this post!! Thanks for cool links, too.
Dreams are so mysterious, maybe at another time…even this one will make sense.
