dream
5/14/00 - It's at a backgammon
tournament; an unknown player against me in the finals or semifinals - a dull,
brutish sort. At first his insults upon me are restricted to throwing my books
(and other belongings) about, but later gets really nasty and physical, rapping
my head with his knuckles in provocation. I wonder how much of this abuse
I am expected to sit still for until the tournament director intervenes...,
5/14/00 - running from pirates or
knights in armor, I ducked into a half-sunken apartment full of young guys from
California in the sub-zero winter [often when I awaken I am completely unsure
of the season].
