so tired of being awake - coyote dream



earson: chicodos - you wouldn't last a minute on the creek (accoustic)
eyeson: RP, my new nVee touch, texts
thoughton: i was mean to a lot of people this weekend on purpose

i dreamt last night about a coyote and a carcrash. in the dream:

i am driving on a very swoopy, curvy local sort of highway surrounded by trees and greenery. as i come around a curve and go under a bridge, i see a coyote. to avoid it, i swerve off of the road and flip my car onto it's side - somehow the car is resting on the driver's side door with the roof toward the road, passenger door upward. the front of the car is crushed against a fallen tree. i climb out of the passenger window and discover that the road is full of people taking photographs of the coyote and a clutter of deer (all of them look like late-season bucks for some reason, huge racks of antlers .. ) .. the coyote begins to attack and chase the deer, they're running away and i don't see if they're caught. those of us who have avoided hitting the deer are some sort of refugees in an artist's community that's one floor of several rooms .. looks kind of Mexican, very brightly colored stucco walls and high windows .. lots of different mediums. when i'm done in there, talking to people in confusion, i try to go out and find my car. i panic because it seems to be gone and because i don't have insurance or a license and i start to cry. i go back into the artist's refugee camp, really sobbing now .. noone knows where my car is, nor did they see what happened to it. i go out the 'back' door of the hamlet and it's a mountinous Italian cityscape, old cobblestoneas and steps and everything climbing all over the place in curves, stacked colorful buildings leaning against each other ..

i don't know, guys.

coyote = selfishness, or regret, or a warning. all make sense.
