More Strange Dreams
If you are not in the least bit interested in people’s dreams or if you feel the need to mock someone’s dream, please move on as this post will not interest you in the slightest.
So I had another weird dream earlier. This time I was in my old room...the one I was in while growing up in my teen years. It wasn’t exactly the same but the bedding and color was the same...course, that’s because they were blue and blue always finds its way into my dreams.
I would come in and out of the room for various reasons and each time, I would notice a paook web being built, in canopy fashion, over my bed. Every time I would come in, more of it would be built but I never saw any paooki.
Strangest thing is that it was never night time, never time to sleep in that bed, but new days kept happening.
The next time I walked into my bedroom, it looked like the web was really thick so I walked around to the foot of my bed and noticed there were 5 separate canopies being built by 5 separate paookis. I had to walk past it to the phone as I was supposed to pick someone up for work.
Oh yah, I just remembered, in this dream, I had a motorcycle....that was the COOL part.
Anyway, I was trying to call this person for work and their phone never rang. While I was looking for my address book, I noticed the paooki falling onto my bed and growing in size. I started to panic. I couldn’t leave the room until I made contact with this other person and their damn phone wasn’t even ringing. I tried another phone number from memory but that didn’t work either.
The paooki kept growing.
I finally found my address book and saw about three different numbers for this person. I tried them all. While working through the first two phone numbers, I noticed one of the paooki had turned into a turtle. Not a small, pet shop sized turtle but your average, swamp or woods turtle. I felt a small sense of relief and hope that the other paooki would turn into turtles as well.
I got to the third phone number and dialed. While waiting, I looked over at the first turtle and noticed that another paook had turned into a turtle but the first turtle had ripped its head off. I could see the shell, legs and a torn open neck as the second turtle laid there, being eaten.
The person on the phone answered, I told them I was on my way to work, I hopped on my motorcycle and drove down a long stretch of highway with wheat fields on both sides. Then I woke up.
