° ceq's Lucid World °

a dream i had around 2003 - 2004...


I find myself in a familiar street in the town where i used to live, and near to me, wehere it actually should be a gas station, i see a plot full of small shrubs, bushes, spiny herbs and bit by bit i figure out i'm totally sorrounded by that kind of environment, even the street interrupt on that soil and i notice a few hundred meters ahead there's asphalt again; i wanna reach it, but i feel awkward crossing that soil, it makes me think i could scratch and sting myself walking on...so i try to make a long hop but i stop not even in the crossing midpoint and i set down my feet...the grass stings! as i feel a light hurt i pull back feet and legs and then i remain suspended in the air...i start moving forward flying; i become lucid and speed up, i don't like the asphalt, i'd like a more natural ambient to fly about and explore, so i replace the asphalt with thick woods, tall trees and i fly towards them; i look dawn and in addition to the grass and bushes i notice some sea urchins endoskeletons, same look as in the reality: spherical, a little hole on the top and a bigger one in the bottom and many bumps where spines were set; these endoskeletons usually are green or purple, but in the dream are reddish, seem they're covered by a sort of red powder that reminds me the paprika; i have appetite, i catch one, i expect it's crispy and i taste it...same as eating a paprika chip! I enjoy the flavour so i pick up some more and i restart flying to the woods at full speed, so fast i'm forced to be careful to avoid knocking into the tree trunks! No problem anyway, i enter the woods, i observe the flora doing slalom throw the trees, i feel a pleasant fresh breeze and a pacific silence, hearing only the sound of the air caused by my flight and the branches and leaves rustling; after some more zig-zag through the trees i see a path and i take it; i land on and keep running, but it's a combined fly-run 'cause my steps are quite long and lightweight; suddenly i see my mom walking to my direction and i tell her: “ mom, when i wake up i talk you about this dream ok! “ and i actually wake up with purpose to tell her.
