I dreamt that I saw a shapely woman coming out of the sea. The water was limpid. The sky was deep blue. But then I realized the woman had two heads that stood neck to neck. In spite of the breasts, narrow waist, and broad hips, the other head was that of a man. He had a strong jaw and heavy brows. She had a round forehead, high cheekbones, and a pointed chin. The two heads were quite different in shape. As the body emerged from the water, I saw a sizable penis on top of a vagina. By the time the hermaphrodite was in full view, the vision dissolved. Before I fell asleep again, I tried to imagine how the species I saw in my dream reproduced. Easily enough, I reassured myself quite quickly.
