I've been having really weird dreams. A lot of them involve being back in school.

Last night I dreamt that I was going to school that had a prom-like scenario mid winter. Tradition was for all the men (after the dance) to go outside, strip down, and do a lap around campus naked. I was about to join them, but it was called off because it was too rainy and not snowy enough. Apparently snow is necessary for streaking.

Anyway, as a safer alternative the school filled their gymnasium with a snow-like substance that was softer than clouds. I remember diving into it and thinking "This is what fun should be like. Soft. Safe."

I really wish the places I visited in my dreams were real. They're so much more fascinating than the real world.


In my dreams of late,
I've met a girl,

or two.

They've shown my kindness
And tenderness of heart.
It's almost disappointing,
When I wake up and realize,

It was all a dream.

It makes me feel like I'm missing out in life.
