It almost wasn't even a dream really it was more like a waking dream. I feel my legs pulled up knees in palms on my side in fetal curl and somehow I am drawn out of myself and I see my body but only briefly then I am entirely contained in a shell I feel the soft almost leathery shell and I realize that I am actually a seedling of some type. I have a predominant feeling that it is a kidney bean that is struggling to sprout. Then I feel the chemical reaction within myself inside my shell, as the turbulent transformation takes place what is internal is moved out through a touch of an opening in the lining. Then as a moth leaves its cocoon, my spirit which has been slumbering pushes through the orifice. This will be a sequence that takes any undefined amount of time perhaps hours even. However, once the sequence has been navigated I emerge now awake. I feel like I am peeling layers off that are soft and damp sweated like solder and hardening in the air as I belaboring breathe.
