you, convicted of fraud
and I, accessory
to murder—
these dark masks we sport
in my nighttime dreams

I only dream of boring things - like going to Iceland! :)
This dream analyst once said that every dream we have, even those about others, are really about ourselves. Interesting concept, isn't it?

Such playfulness to these dark dreams, Janet! Enjoyed.

aurora---I'd rather have dreams about going to iceland, especially since I doubt I'll get there any other way. this dream of mine was surprising, so what could I do but write about it?
robert---glad you enjoyed it. yes, gotta at least be playful about the dark dreams. (this one spooked me!)
