Unfinished Temples

I am with a cousin. She is telling me about this pain she is getting
in her chest area. I have these two huge flat needles and I
instinctively stick them right into her muscles just below her knee.
She doesn't even notice me pushing them in. She talks to me about
things troubling her heart and I listen as best I can to help her.

I have a dream about eating lots of spaghetti bolonaise.  It has meat
in it and it tastes really great.  I am loading it into a bowl and
wolfing it down.

I have been carving away at this unfinished sculpture. It turns out
that it is a whole project of many sculptures, not just a single
sculpture. I end up making all these model figures, and they become
characters in a scene. The scene evolves into these greek temples, a
whole pantheon of mount olympus. Like a giant dolls house for the
gods.


I never finish the temple. My dad and grandfather are here with me and
they have been watching my progress. The temple is not symmetrical,
its all out of line, but my grandfather says it doesn't matter. We
look at it as a whole, there is only one wall that really needs
finishing, and I think I have just enough time to finish it.
