Dream: poetry slam

In my dream, a group of us were at a poetry slam. Never been to one but I’ve seen them on t.v. The group I was with was indifferent. One impatient. Another member of our group kept trying to get ‘impatient’ to enjoy. A young lady with flowers in her hair approached me and withContinue reading “Dream: poetry slam”
