Mine Eyes, Mine Eyes....

The prize shall be grand to the person who can interpret this dream....

I am riding my bike in Greeley.
I am leaving an airport.
In reality this airport doesn't exist, but in my dream, the airport is located on 35th Ave and the 34 Bypass. (basically where the Home Depot is)
Down 35th Avenue I ride toward Bittersweet park.
It's cloudy like it wants to rain, but I know it won't.
I am humming "I'm in the Lord's Army", the faithful old tune from our youth.
I notice that everything is the same and yet it is better.
Bittersweet park is where Bittersweet park always is, except its way cooler.
It's a park i always dream.

This park is so cool.

I wish I had time to explain it.

But everything is different.
Everything is just better.
Just imagine the familiar places of your home town and everything you can remember seeing.
Now imagine it 100 times better.
Greener, Lusher, Cleaner, More Friendly....
Although I want to ride through my favorite park, I am determined to get home.

In this dream, my home is located off of 35th Ave and 4th Street.

3236 W. 3rd Street Rd.

The 1st home Trudy and I inhabited in Greeley.

I get to 10th Street.

Everything looks great.

I see asian people everywhere though.

Walking, Driving, Bike Riding....

I see a young man riding a Segma.

If anyone remembers what a Segma is you are from the 80's.

I remember the year my brother got a Segma for Christmas.

It was sweet!

And in my dream, it suddenly hit me.

"This is the guy who stole my brother's Segma!"

I called out to him.He turned to look at me and his eyes flashed like white beams.

He had no facial expression.

But he knew my thoughts.

Off he rode down 35th.

I began to pedal as hard as I could to chase him.

I rode hard til I passed him about 20 feet ahead.

I jumped off my bike and stood in the middle of the sidewalk.

He came at me faster and faster.

I knew he was going to ram me, but I also knew that it was my only way to stop him.

When he was just in front of me and I jumped at him to tackle him.

I felt the impact and I began to swing and punch as violently as I could.

But as I opened my eyes to see who I was punching, I realized that I was punching a stalk of hay.

I stood up and looked around.

The Segma and it's rider were no where to be found.

But the stalk of hay was bleeding.

I began to jump on it and stomp it until my shoes were red.

I picked up the scattered hay and threw it into a ditch.

Just then I heard a woman screaming.

I turned to see her running across the street.

She was screaming, "Murderer! MURDERER!!!!"

I broke the kick stand off my bike and I stabbed her in the neck.

But when I pulled the kick stand out she was a stuffed doll.

Her eyes started glowing like the Segma rider's.

I went to throw her into the ditch but when I threw her she pulled me and we both plunged into the mucky water.

I managed to stand up and I grabbed her and held her under the water til she stopped moving.

I climbed out of the ditch.

Scared and embarrassed.

And when I looked at my wet arms, there were eyes all over my flesh staring at me.

Blinking and functioning like real eyes.

I lifted my shirt and realized my whole body was covered with eyes all looking at me.

In fear, I jumped into the ditch and held my breathe to kill myself....

....and I woke up.
