Briar’s Journal (January 22 to February 19, 2013)

Dream Entry*
June 8, 2007
 
I’m walking down a street made of marshmallows. I sink every step I take.
 
Without turning around, I’m suddenly aware that I’m being stalked by a rabid squirrel. I try to run, but the marshmallow street is melting. My legs are mired. The squirrel chatters shrilly. I scream for help.
 
My friends are gathered on the sidewalk, reading. Bigfoot directs them all to make a bridge over the melting marshmallow to where I’m now sunk up to my neck. I wake as the squirrel pounces on my back and begins to nibble my ears.
