"Guitar done worthy". "Girls don't wallgaze". I was told these things in dreams, but I don't know what they are intended to mean.
I don't really know what any of it means. My dreams have been screaming at me lately, trying to get me to hear something. But it's like being yelled at frantically by someone in Japanese while they point to an approaching car; are you supposed to get in there immediately, or run away from it as fast as you can?
Last night...
It was winter. I was somewhere in Manitoba, I think. I had a truck that carried a lot of stuff I needed, but no driver's license. I was driving anyway, from village to village, town to town.
I had parked nose-first in someone's driveway, at a trailer park, and was at the front of the vehicle when I slipped in the snow and slid down toward the backyard. But there was no backyard -- it just sloped down about twenty feet to a cliff, and below that was a long, long drop into barren forest. A tree just before the edge was all that stopped me.
My left arm was holding something I didn't want to let go, so I had to grab some roots with my right, and pull myself up. Eventually I was able to reach some fence that offered a better grip, and I climbed back up into the neighbor's yard.
I packed up and prepared to leave, though my truck was now a pushcart, and I headed off into the snow again.
God damned winter.
