Dream of a bear

I dreamt I was trampled by a bear.

A giant golden coloured female grizzly.

I got too close to her cubs and she charged me.

The sound was epic like the reverberation of an earthquake.

She threw down the walls of the cabin and made the earth shake.

I was in awe of her power.

I felt no pain as I pretended to be dead,

holding my breath as long as I could in the dream.

I woke up so I could breathe.

I’m sure I survived. 

She was only roaring out her anger over me

in this outer body experience.

This dream makes me wonder if I am being crushed by my own

expectations and inner frustrations.

Or if I need to roar out my anger too.


Nightmare

I dreamt of two thick red devils

with grotesque heads

who were at the edge of hell

one was eating a baby

the others throbbing penis

dragging on the ground

they were babbling to one another

I knew I was in hell

I was so sad

I did not know what to do

I was being tortured for my sins.


Dream of Blue

I dreamt of blue

a deep dark Russian blue

I painted with my blue 

and it made me feel like 

I was swimming in the sea.


Usually, I’m frightened when I

see this deepness in the ocean

as soon as I see the change

in the underwater light

so dark as to hide the seafloor

I panic and flee back to shore

anything can be hiding in the depths.

It terrifies me.


But inside of my dark blue

I am safe, fascinated by its

possibility and swaddled

inside the murky beauty.
