it’s what the rock says because the earth speaks it sings too lalalalala doo doo doo oooooooooo No Where is quiet she was in my dreams again last night did i swallow a spore that made me dream Drink coffee in the morning Ya it’s hazelnut Refuse to write down dream because the rat doesn’t write it down why should i? OK taurus is stubborn. I write it down:
she has short brown hair that’s somewhat brittle but it smells really lovely like a worn in t-shirt that hasn’t been washed. she must dye it that color. I think she has a lot of greys, but it doesn’t matter. If she didn’t dye it I’d still think she was beautiful. age doesn’t matter. i get to roll around in her bed and smell her sheets and smell her hair. i wonder why smelling things is so comforting. breathe in really deep and fall past this part of dream into another. into another. into another. singing in my ear, it’s so quiet it tickles. my ears are sensitive. but i breathe back into hers. hers is a shell that spirals inwards. trace the shape until the scale of my finger outgrows it. not sure i can reach the center of the labyrinth but she tells me I can and puts my finger back where it was and tells me to continue on my path. I wake up.
