The body, the eviction and the white plastic bag
I had a dream last night.
First, there was an old man who left a dead body in my bath. I asked the man about this, about dumping a body in my flat, but he wasn't too forthcoming. He said it would be alright, but was evasive.
I was also aware that someone else had come into my flat, possibly a builder, and was stripping the walls. I tried to ring the police but nothing came of that. I got on a bus, but disovered it was going in the wrong direction for my purposes. I rang my daughter about my concerns, but when I got back to my flat, it was almost gutted and other people were now there, moving in.
They were not friendly, rather dismissive, and were clearly setting up home there. They wanted me out. The place now looked entirely diffferent to what it had been, and trying to make the best of a bad job, I was gathering my possessions in three white plastic shopping bags.
But these too were disappearing, I wasn't sure where, and I ended up with just one bag, with one or two small items in it.
Dawn was breaking, it was time for me to go.
By the by, I'm off to a studio in Acton today, to be interviewed by 'Conscious TV', which may sound like a dream, but isn't.
