THE GREENISH GOOK (July 20, 2012)
I dreamt that I was watching an old woman out of whose ears a greenish gook was coming out. Curling as it came out, it stuck to her gray hair on both sides of her head. The gook was coming out quite fast, as well. Its pace was steady. There was no sign of it ever slowing down. In her eighties, the woman had her eyes and mouth wide open, as if she was about to let out a scream, but she made no sound. She was flabbergasted by what was happening to her. I, too, was amazed by my dream when I woke up in the middle of the night. It was so vivid, too. I fell asleep again quickly enough, but the dream came back to me as soon as I woke up. In my mind, the greenish gook was still coming out of the old woman’s head at a steady pace. No end to surprises from this silly old brain of mine.
