Apocalypse dreams

Dreamt of a zombie Apocalypse last night - influence of husboy - but this time I got to become a zombie, rather than just be pursued by the mindless monsters - gradually enough so that the humans I was with were able to try and dismember me, a fate to which I acquiesced willingly. They cut off my head and cut my body in half at the waist but it didn't work. I wasn't able to be dismembered. But I didn't want to eat anybody, I simply wandered the foreign wasteland of the earth and encountered other zombies, as if they were just another community of people to whom humans did not have access for fear of being eaten.

In this reality - in that indisputable way "impossible" things assert themselves as truth in dreams sometimes - extra teeth are stored in the knuckles of human bodies (or human bodies become zombies). A group of thugs wanted to use my teeth for something, so they held me down - six or seven of them - and they broke all my knuckles and dug out the teeth with the tip of a knife. I struggled and screamed.

I'm sure this dream had nothing to do with the fact that I woke up in the middle of the night thinking that this conventional life and everything about it besides the husboy just isn't for me, it's suffocating and I can't do it much longer.

  1. Time to remember yourself, not dismember yourself
