dreams have such a strange logic.
last night I was in a friends house
which was somehow in WI
even though I know they live here.
I have never been in this person’s house
and yet I was walking around a house
with it’s clutter and homeyness
and detail.
everything cast in a shadowy blue light
like it was morning and the lights were out
piles of paper everywhere
and an beige plastic phone like they used to have in offices
it was a mid century modern
(there are many of those around here)
(I don’t even know if my friend lives in one)
my brain made this whole house to walk around in
without having ever been such a place
and it felt entirely logical when I was there
it wasn’t strange that me and another friend were just walking around this strange house, it being the meeting place for a group of us
and we were the first to arrive.
right next to the campground
we let ourselves in.
not sure how?
and we didn't have phones
so were wondering about the rest of the group that had not arrived.
walking around.
this house.
that I don’t know.
that I have never been.
it made complete sense in the dream.
but on waking and remembering
it fell apart.
