burning from the inside

by angeliska on September 20, 2002

fever consumes me..
shaking and shivering wrapped in dirty sheets
consumptive coughing blood into white lace hankies
*i like to make it sond much worse than it is*
but it is true that
fever + new orleans + late september + no air conditioning = self-pity
i had beautiful intense dreams last night
i keep dreaming of the most gorgeous dream boys
a different one every night
makes me curious, not that i’m complaining- but, why?
last night it was *two* wild gypsy boys
kissing on me in shivery cold water
while a church burned and everyone danced
it was very exciting
and also was there and she looked *sooooooo* pretty
her hair was black and shiny and done in kind of a thirties flip-bob, very becoming
she was being ultra girlie-girlie and had been shopping for fancy things and makeup
this was very odd and sweet and entertaining to watch her cooing over her
expensive and frivolous purchases in high-heels and slip
not very normal for my girl who could be found often in paint-spotted black army pants
and hand-stitched patches, grumbling because she had no money for cigarettes..
it’s always really funny in dreams when you see your friends, but not in their everyday aspects- like you’re seeing an alter-ego version of them…
i’ve been using this as my defacto dreamjournal for a bit now, and i’m wondering if anyone else here would be interested if i started a community for dreams and interpretations? discussion of dream symbolism? or just sharing odd ones? nightmares too..
hmmmmm?
