In my dream two young men push their way into the back room of the shop where I work, ostensibly for water. Their manner touches on violence and I resent having to give them no cause to erupt.

In my dream I’ll fly back to London from Istanbul tomorrow, so I do some quick shopping in the warehouses: trying to find a knee length gingham shirt that fits leads me to a rack of over printed jeans in searing colors. I feel smug.

In my dream I’m brought before a monstrous Hollywood fixer who proposes slicing one of my fingers because I have breached some part of my contract. I’m terrified at first, but become more and more belligerent, fighting him with brass lamps and eventually a gun I grab from him.

In my dream we split the rough wood column revealing its Copenhagen Blue interior. On my next visit I look frantically for the blue beam because it houses the spirit of the community’s leader.
