I'm in the park, with friends. The dogs have wandered off. We call them back, and one of them starts howling like a wolf, which sets off all the others. We are running together now, through beautiful woodland, dogs barking and howling all the way back, in a big pack.
I go to the fields, the steep north facing slopes have all been ploughed up and down the slope, contrary to how I would instinctively plough. Seeds have been sown in all of the drills, and they are coming up through the weeds in the thousands. Beetroots, carrots, parsnips, salads, so many as far as the eye can see. I meet someone from the allotments, and tell her how amazing this is.
She says its not as amazing as it used to be, I know what she means somehow, as there are a lot of weeds growing in between.
I see the plant Hearts Ease, I pick some, saying,
"just look at how beautiful this flower is"
She agrees and points out some other beautiful flowers. We wander to the top of the hill together.
I'm now revisiting Hospital. I was living there for a long time, and now I have to go back to find where I was once living.
I wander into the wrong room, I've lost all sense of direction and feel quite drunk. I see a friend, who sees that I don't know where I'm going and she tries to give me directions. I vaguely follow, but its not working, and I wander into a ward, which is mostly empty, but there is a nurse treating a girl in a bed. The girl looks a bit like a friend of mine, but she is a lot over weight, and has nervous system damage and can't move very well. Also her skin has a lot of spots. For some reason, I am overjoyed that I have found her, and I start singing a song. When I start singing, a little diamond spiral appears above one of the medicine tables in the ward, and I go over to it. Its alive.
The hospital staff now find me and take me out of the ward, but the work has been done. I get lost again on my escorted walk out of the hospital- more work to do. I see my friend conor. He is here, and we need to play some music together. We have to run and hide from the staff who will try to take us out of the hospital.
