This was a cool dream. I know that there were a couple of intense ones earlier in the night, but this is the only one I remember.
Dream 20060718, 5:00 AM: Three-Thousand Degree Kilns, Snow-Cones at the Fair
Many of y’all who read this for the fiber arts stuff, may not know that it started out as a dreamwork journal. I’ve been in a different mental space for a while, and hadn’t been chronicling my dreams – but it’s clearly time again. I’ve been having the monumental epic dreams again, so I’ll be writing them down here.
I don’t censor or limit my descriptions, so they may be disturbing, sexual, graphic, etc. This one in particular has no sex, but some very explicit violence. It disturbed me, in the dreaming, although not enough to wake me. I do always put them behind cut-tags.
