Face your dreams


Este es un viejo dibujo al que vuelvo a menudo.
I often come back to this old drawing of mine


Sueño que intento que no me pisen porque voy descalza
Sueño que me caigo de la cama
Sueño que no puedo abrir los ojos
He visto un erizo cruzando la autopista y he sentido pena
He visto un cartel medio fundido y parpadeante
He visto una nube negra acercandose a mí
He encontrado personas maravillosas
Me he levantado y he abierto la puerta
Llueve
Es fin de semana

I dream that I'm trying not to be step on because I'm barefoot
I dream I fall out of bed
I dream I can't open my eyes nor see
I've seen a hedgehog crossing the highway and I've felt sorry for it
I've seen a halfblown and blinking sign
I've seen a black cloud heading towards me
I've found wonderful people
I've got up and I've open the door
It's raining
It's weekend

The gift:
two days left to enter the draw (see last monday post)
quedan dos días para participar (ver el post del lunes pasado)


Today's music:
Tom Waits, Leonard Cohen, Nick Cave...

and i've seen a little wandering heart marked in chalk. beautiful post esti.
PS I want to go in the draw so badly, I love your art very much but I haven't entered becuase I feel like I have already been given so much lately. So I'm hoping you will do another competition like this later in the year. px

your little dream snippets are magical. they make me smile and they make me think.
i, too, had fascinating dreams last night. it must be something in the air...
