Inside the tall building that is a hospital and a school and a shopping center. I am following Mario World’s Star Road. Next stop is the 6th floor. The hallways are full of water. We have to bail with buckets to get the elevator to come to us. On the 6th floor I strip and […]

We’re in some sort of pagan community. My little sister is there. It’s half campground and half abandoned neighborhood. Some of the homes are under water in a flooded valley where we want to swim.

With Mo at the top of a high hill or low mountain. they tell us the roads might be washed out. we should wait to leave. but we go anyway because Mo (who becomes Audra) has to pick up her little brother. she promised. so we find a good strong slab of stone to use […]
i don’t remember much of last night’s dream. i was sitting on a bus that was a train. to my left was a beat up piano and bench. the windows revealed nothing but green leaves. across the aisle there were no seats and the cement floor was covered in a half inch of water. a […]
