Incest, Alligators, and Books.

It was centuries ago, I was seven and fell in love with a boy. We ran around the countryside playing games and holding hands and kissing.  Then one night we decided to spend the night together. In the morning, my parents came into the room with a rage. They told us that we were not allowed to be together or ever see each other again. The boy was my brother. My family left me behind and took the boy with them, leading him to exile on the other side of the world.  I began my search for them. I crossed rivers and meadows and I began to climb a mountain. I found a clearing in the mountain where the water was crystal clear. I followed the stream up and saw a little black girl holding her head underwater. I ran up to her to make sure she wasn't drowning, and pulled her up from the freezing water. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" she yelled. I explained that I was trying to save her, and she snapped back it was part of her clans ritual, and she would have to start all over again. I asked if I could join her clan or if they could help me find my family. She laughed and told me to walk on. I began to run through the rivers and ended up in a marsh. Alligators. Everywhere. They thrashed and snapped at my feet and I dodged and continued to run. 

I made it up into the snowy part of the mountain, my feet freezing, I trudged on.  Then the snow below my feet would shift and snow alligators came wriggling their way towards me. I tried to out run them, but they were like a massive avalanche of alligators, at last I reached a cliff and jumped.

I found myself at the steps of an enormous castle. I entered. Inside there was a man on a thrown and people were groveling at his feet, asking Mozart to play them some musical piece to put their town at ease. I took out my camera and snapped a photo without anyone's notice and continued up the spiral staircase.  As I reached the top I saw an expansive science fiction library of paperback books. It was so bright and colorful and reached from the floor to the ceiling. I snapped another photo. In the corner there was a dark area, I approached it and saw that it was another smaller library. A sign read "English and Fine Arts. Untouchable Books" Apparently these were off limits. I turned around and there was a girl pulling out some of the science fiction books and a cat was kissing her nose. I snapped another picture, but my camera jammed.

Wake.

Like a Zombie B-Movie

This one is short. I havent been sleeping well, so not many dreams as of late..

I am in a mansion. People are yelling at each other from different rooms in an argument. Then the place starts to decay and fall apart. I run out the front door, another girl following me. We run along a cobblestone path towards a forest. Once in the forest we see what looks like a deer hunters post, with a ladder and platform and the top. We look back, not really sure why we were running for so long when we see them. 

Zombies. 

A huge mass of zombies are strumbling through the trees towards us. You can hear them groan and scream. The girl and I run up the deer hunting platform and at the top are guns, knives and what looks like an old pesticide gas sprayer. I grab the gas sprayer and the girl grabs a gun. The zombies start climbing up towards us and I start gas spraying the shit out of them while the girl blows their heads off. 

Its beautiful.

We manage to fend off the hoard of zombies for the meantime and climb back down and race toward a river. (Zombies dont like water?) There is a large sheet of metal at the bank of the river. We place the metal in the water and climb on and the sheet of metal starts to move like a raft and as soon as we start down the river, it turns into a white water/slip n slide kinda ride.






 (strumbling-  running and strumbling)

Stairway to Heaven

I had to pee really bad. In search for the elusive restroom I turned a corner and found a white door. I opened it to find a small room with a toilet and a black door on the other side of the room. I left the white door open, and walked in and opened the black door. Blackness. It looked as though the worled dropped off from there. Then I peered around the corner and saw a white couch with an african boy sitting on it staring at me. The boy asked me questions, 

"Why are you here?"
"What are you doing?"
"Where did you come from?"
"Dont you still have to pee?"

He continued to stare at me. I got up and went through the black door and everything seemed to drop off either side of me. A few fireworks went off in the distance but did not make enough light for me to see a horizon or any kind of landscape.  I walked along a path that appeared one stone by one stone every time I stepped foreward and found my mom kneeling against a rock.  I came up to her and she looked up at me and said

 "Dont you believe that Stairway to Heaven is the greatest song in history?" 

Then this monster thing that had the head of an anteater snout pointed in the air, it stuck out its tongue at the top of its head and began to speak in electric guitar chords. My mom put her head back down on the rock.

Wake.

No need for help?

D1: I was on a floating prison, kind of like a giant plane. This girl and I were trying to figure out a way to escape when we found a cargo holding area that had been left open. We ripped out the fabric that had been lining the inside and I let the girl get in first. Just as she was crawling into the space, the guards came by and grabbed us, demanding to know what we were doing. I explained that I saw that the fabric inside the cargo bay had been torn, and my friend and I were trying to take it out to make skirts out of it. The guard kept pushing us around and told me that I don't have any needles or thread to make skirts out of and that I was lying. I ran back to my cell to put together some items that looked like I had been attempting to sew clothing. The guards came in and looked at my piles of clothing that I had ripped up and zippers that had been torn out of jackets and concluded that I was telling the truth, but that I was just dumb and didn't know how to make clothing. 

D2: I had been bitten by a giant spider. However, the venom was not going through my body very quickly because I had been eating a lot of vitamin C. (apparently vitamin c wards off spider bites?) I tried calling a hospital to tell them I was slowly being poisoned by a spider bite but they assured me my vitamin C concentrations would be enough to keep me healthy. Then my body froze and I was unable to move. 

D3:    There was a large swimming pool in the shape of a soup can. A few people were just casually swimming around in it when one girl started to sink to the bottom. People began panicking and someone swam down and pulled her up from the bottom. They threw her over the edge of the can-pool and we dragged her over to the lifeguards desk where there was a phone. She turned into a rubber doll, and we decided there was no need to call for help.... since she was now made of plastic. 

uh... wake. i think.

Crumbs and Bits

From a few days ago, small bits I can remember-

I am in a bus that has no driver. The bus is being propelled by the left over energy of the previous driver. Soon we start to head up a hill and someone pulls the cord to stop the bus, but the bus never reaches the stop. As soon as we hit the middle of the hill, the bus looses its momentum and starts to slide backwards. People are panicking and I run to the front of the bus to slam on the breaks.

I was in an all girls school and we were getting ready to play football. I then realized I had no shoes on and the coach began to yell at me and told me to go to my locker and find some shoes or I would not be allowed to play. I went to my locker but someone had stolen my shoes. I had a sneaking suspicion that they were in the women's bathroom so that was my first place to look. The bathroom was filled with people, but the stalls were so short that you could see everyone. I was so shocked that I could see everyone sitting there, that I forgot about my lost shoes.

Water Causes Disgustingly Dry Skin

I'm standing at the edge of an enormous pool with my dad. The water is crystal clear and I look down and see cranes. Like construction cranes. Its an underwater lab/construction site. My dad starts diving around and I pick up a fishing pole and start fishing for bass. But all I keep catching are tropical fish and my dad keeps freaking out about how I shouldn't touch them because they are all poisonous. Then I get in the water and start swimming around. I get out, and notice my hand starts to itch. OH MY GOD, MY HAND IS FUCKING ITCHY. It wont stop. I look down at it and my middle finger is completely dry and scaly looking. My skin is starting to flake off in huge chunks. I lift up a dry skin flap on my finger and to my horror can see the tendons and muscles underneath have completely shriveled up and dried and are tearing away from the bone. Panicking I smooth my nasty dry finger skin back down and look around for my dad. He is coming out of the water along with this other guy. As soon as the guy emerges from the pool he starts screaming that his body is itchy. I realize its the water. Everyone panics and rushes to a shower station to get the contaminated water off of them. Just then some large man comes in screaming about how we broke into his lab and threatens us with a pistol. He grabs my dad and takes a bullet and cracks it open and empties the gun powder into a bowl. He gives my dad a wire and tells him to bite it and attempts to cover the other end in the powder. I start yelling that my dad has a pacemaker and this will probably kill him and the large angry man assures me it is completely safe.

wake.

Worlds end outside Windows and I can travel through worm holes with embroidery

This one takes place in a dorm tower. All of my friends and everyone I have ever met are living in this tower. One day im hanging out in my room when my old friend Cody walks in and starts confessing his love for me. Im standing by the window watching the sun set and listening to this kid pour his heart out. I start taking pictures of the sun, but through my viewfinder the sun is HUGE. I can see solar flares firing off its surface, I can see sun spots, everything. I turn to cody, "Dude... look at this!!" 

He keeps on talking.... I look out the window again but the sun has finally set. A giant cloud starts to form at the horizon, and its getting big fast. In a matter of seconds the cloud has reached about a mile away from the window and is taking over the entire sky. Its racing towards the window fast. Suddenly, just as it looks like the cloud is going to smash through the window, (the whole time im freaking out about how were all going to die and cody is still confessing his love) The cloud quickly funnels off into one spindly thread. This thread latches itself on the outside of the window then begins to spread. Like spider webs. The webs creep their way into the building and spiders start spinning webs everywhere. Cody finally realizes that something wierd is happening and starts smashing the spiders with his shoe while still going on about love. I look out the window again and gasp. Out on the horizon now was the silloughette of a giant black dragon. This is the point where im like

fuck.

Were all going to die.

Its the end of the world.

This kid is still blabbering about love.

And no one seems to notice the GIANT FUCKING WEBS OR DRAGON OUTSIDE THE WINDOW.

So I'm panicking at this point, and run out into the hallway of the dorms. Darrel is running around in his underwear completely bald and playing air guitar. I go into another room and find his mom sitting in a chair. I ask her if she has noticed the webs that are filling the building or the giant dragon or had seen the wierd huge sun. She says "No, I diddnt notice these things. But things like this happen all the time." I sit down in a chair across from her and reach into my pocket and find these strange looking embroidery patches. Darrels mom reminds me that in a previous dream I was able to transport (teleport?) myself from one place to another place or from one time to another time if I believed in it hard enough. I looked down at the embroidery patches and noticed that one looked like a long piece of string with an arrow at the other end. I put one end of the embroidery into my mouth between my teeth and let the arrow end fall to the floor. I stood up on the chair and closed my eyes, still biting the embroidery. I leaned foreward and fell of the chair head first. Then I noticed I did not hit the ground and was falling through some wierd warm tunnel.

*Wake. Finally*
