Coffee and a short walk.
A short journal entry. Because nothing is happening. Still shaking off the last stubborn mucoid residues of my flu. Coffee at Double Shot cafe in Deakin. It was a cold morning and we sat outside. By butt-hopping our way down a row of vacant stools, we managed to snag a single shaft of sunlight for…

Are the people you meet in your dreams actually conscious?
OK then. You are dreaming. And you meet this woman.She has a conversation with you, and then she suddenly points across at a mountain you had not noticed up until that very moment. The question is: Who is controlling the behaviours of this dream woman? Why did she suddenly point? Is a part of your…
