Dream Journal

A dream: In order to reach Glendale, a $70 daily fee has been decreed in the vicinity of Pomona. The freeway comes to a halt. A long line of cars. Idled drivers sitting at a series of tables pushed together in the carpool lane. Inspections and x-rays, as at an airport. Suddenly going to Glendale no longer seems worthwhile, although perhaps by taking side streets the fees can be avoided.

Dream Journal

A dream: After a late night—yet another late night, an even later night than usual—I awake to realize that it’s the morning of the summer art festival, which is in fact two weeks away. I drive to Irvine to see if people are setting up booths in preparation for the day’s event. They are.

A dream: Our female cousins, their breasts exposed, sit languidly in the back seat of a brown station wagon parked next to ours in a lot in New York City. In the front seat, a third woman, name unknown.
