So, I had a migraine yesterday and took a nap. And had a very vivid dream. One I did not like.
Warning: If you have a weak stomach, do not read this.
In it we were waiting for a train, the train stopped briefly, would not open the doors, then went on without us....the sky was cloudy and looked like rain. When you looked up you could see brown streaks running through the couds.
We began to head back toward shelter, which was several miles away, and then the rain started.
Except it wasn't rain. It was grey muddy crap--as in literally excrement sleeting down... I had a towel I put over my head to keep off the worst of it, but we were all wondering why it ws raining this stuff and what it was going to do to us.
Gap in the dream
Reached shelter, an apartment in town. This was some sort of group of people, here, and we were hiding out.
Tried to use the towel to wipe the worst of it off. A mole came off my face with it.
Initially in the dream it was a small hole, and I wondered if it would get worse, infected from the stuff... I wanted to go to a dr, but was not allowed to. And we weren't sure if a dr would even treat me anyway....there was a guy with me, he didn't act concerned at all, more concerned about not getting in trouble with this group....
And although intellectually worried, I was never really emotionally worried in the dream.
Even by the end when I looked in the mirror again--the wound was much larger--as if the skin had disolved away, you could see bone and muscle, and even brain tissue. It was like my face had shifted over, Ithe fleshy part had distorted, two eyes still there, bt also one where the socket ws in the structure of my skull that could be seen (in essence I had three eyes, though this didn't register as anything concerning or alarming in the dream). I was more concerned about the chance that it would get infected without the skin, and I was thinking in the dream, without any emotional overlay, that it was probable that with this injury I would not survive the night.
The dream ended at that point.
A few factors related to the dream:
1. My cat jumped out of my arms a few days earlier and had accidentally caught his claw in a mole I have on my torso, and ripped it partway open.
2. I had just read an article about tornados picking up debris and dropping them several miles away a day earlier.
3. The previous day, also, I had been looking through an anatomy textbook, and my face in the dream had more in common with those anatomical drawings of structural crossections than anything really messy and gory.
4. Migraines always cause bizarre dreams for me....:(
Thoughts?
