Science I love . again and again
The amazing chemistry of dreams:
I wake up early . just now . slowly . so I remember
I am in a high school art class as an outsider-visitor-helper
It's critique time
The work is carefully put up. to see
I wander out and down the hall to another art classroom
Walk in and move around the edges looking at each piece on three walls
What am I doing ?! .Run back
They're watching a fine art film . I watch . Rembrandt lighting beauty
Lights on
I look at each of their drawings on the wall
The quality is remarkable
Starting to wake up . realizing . somehow .I create
Two complete art shows with unique .wonderful pictures
A poignant film .within
A cast of.engaging teen charactersI get to do it again

I am in Love:

The Good Fairy made me a Wikipedia page:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Dane
"What's this ?"

Pictures going everywhere
Pictures being seen
"That's what."

There are trade-offs:
Are your dreams getting better with aging
My sleep-chem-events make up for piles

Childhood Story:
South Central 1946. In my face...gutMy father takes me too see the Harlem Globtrotters
His pure-self: "see-the-jungle-bunnies-with-watermelon"
Luckily .I have no idea
It is the most amazing . thrilling..unforgettable
He must know . I am lost to his world

Shadeless 97 degree sidewalk
East 14th is one of my routes
Two serious prostitutes .walking towards me ..pass by
Go in a shop ....come out . go by me
WhiteTshirt guy follows them sayin's"Come here" .
One of the women does stop and talk
The defiant woman walks on a block .. stops.
I pass her .....I look back .... flash
WhiteT and a woman squeal up in an old hoopty
Jump out..start beating on her.. trying to drag her in
This woman will not be put into the car.. 5 minutes10 people are close .watching
Cool red car pulls up ..calm driver-dude gets out .Takes her hand ..leads her . puts her in ..drives off
'beaters' .standing ..talkin' shit . makin' signs .....
End public part ... I'm. full ........and wondering how race matters
