Chiwha
I'm with Chiwa
We are at a music gig in Sheffield. Scragga is playing the decks. It's late at night.
I meet Maria
Angry with Maria because of the way she was talking to me. She had changed since having a baby. But her insight has gone deeper. She can see more things.
We argue for quite a long time. But it's simply a miss understanding due to the tones of our voices.
There is a river. The water is very strong.
Dangerously strong.
It's also part of a dam.
.
I'm with Maria still. She finds this really deep pool to jump into. She jumps first, it's from a long height. She lands safely in the pool. I jump second , she is nervous I will jump ontop of her, I end up jumping into the same space of water that she jumps into . She is angry with because I nearly jump on top of her. I sink deep deep deep, my eyes are closed. I need air, but I'm underwater, I breath in air even though I'm underwater.
I come up. Me and Maria have an argument on the side of the river. Music is still playing by the gig.
Munted people are everywhere.
There are many different levels to this club. At each level down its more sophisticated. And the security goes up every time. I'm at the very bottom level now. There are these crazy doors.
I'm with Chiwa but he disappears, somewhere amidst a huge crowd, I lose him, and now it's early in the morning and I've still not seen him, but I have seen others who are asking me to get some music together on the Mbira, so I look for Chiwa. There is so much tight security coming out of the building. Looking for him is like a needle in a hay stack.
But then I discover what's happened. He had been arrested for accidentally going through a high security breach, and it's causing a commotion because he is really drunk on whiskey. I apparently saw this happening but misunderstood what it was at the time as part of a comedy performance, because it was such a ridiculous situation.
I have to drive my car up close somewhere to sort this situation out with Chiwa . And a security stops me because one of the cameras shows a security guard my two air rifles. And he comes over and confiscates them. Then I have to go and explain myself. It's a lengthy process. Apparently I needed a licence to own them. But I don't have one so it's going to be a fine. Chiwa is still missing but he was also caught on camera, so he is going through similar fines now.
70450.£ pounds fine is the cheapest it can be, but I explain that I have simply no money. They want to limit me, to shut me down in financial stasis. So as to prevent me exercising my new found freedoms.
And it seems now that many more people have been caught by security and are facing similar fines, because it's through getting the fines that the officers make their money.
I see heather simply running away from the guards, and then Chiwa follows suit, and so I start running too, just get out of the situation. I nearly escape the guard, but then they are catching me, and i wake up.
