I do not sleep very much. There are reasons for this that I understand and reasons I don't. When I can't sleep I sometimes come to this site. I find it soothing. it supports my theory that there is a universal unconscious, and although I am rarely there, a dream world that we share. We might not meet each other there, but I suspect it's one big landscape, planet, cosmos. And there are feelings in dreams we never experience when we are awake. Although one night i saw something on the street that was terrifying and foretold of death, and that was like a feeling from a dream. Unencumbered by the editor in my brain. Pure pulse of terror. And I will never know what happened to the people I saw on that precipice of murder. I was simply driving by at the darkest moment of a life, I think.
I never dream of Radiohead. I don't know if I want to. It's strange enough that they exist in my imagination separately from their own being. As do all of you.
Sweet dreams. Here's the best lullaby, and one of the most beautiful parts? "One, two three..."
And I think, how can anybody sleep when there is something this beautiful to be found when you are awake?
