Dream Journal 10 by Driven-Crazy


I'm standing beside a wooded road, unable to find my way home when an old man comes along and gives me directions to take a dirt path deeper into the woods. I follow his advice only to realize I'm now traveling with a male companion totally different from the old man. The path leads us beneath the roots of a massive tree. We are forced onto our stomachs to crawl beneath the roots and must dig out some of the soil to make room for us. The scent of wet soil is strong in my nostrils. A claustrophic sense consumes me. The path under the tree leads us out next to an azure lake that is such a vivid, ethereal shade of blue it takes my breath away.

We continue our journey onto a broad path between large trees when suddenly, we're caught up in a herd of stampeding dinosaurs. At this point, I am separated from my companion. There are other, carnivorous lizards that I must escape from when I notice other fleeing people who tell me they are trying to find the last human refuge left on the planet and that humans are the last remaining mammals.

My journey continues until I stumble upon razor wire blocking off a section of the woods. I've come upon the human encampment where I am reunited with my previous traveling companion. The humans we meet there are ragged and unkempt. Their clothes are torn, their hair greasy and matted, and then they turn on me and my traveling companion. They say I am a unicorn bound in human form, another type of mammal in a world dominated by a post-apocalyptic dinosaur infestation. They want to study me.

So I flee with my traveling companion, at which point I suddenly have a child as though me and my traveling companion have produced offspring. After surviving another attack by carnivorous dinosaurs, we come to a graveyard where people appear out of the mist. They are everything the first human encampment wasn't. They are kind and accept us into their numbers.

This is the point where I wake up. The dream was so vivid it has stuck with me for days. I'm sorry if this is too long.
