meadow
Tuesday, September 10th, 2002
J: We went to the meadow on the other side of Army Street.
R: There’s a meadow there?
J (impatiently): In my dream. It was you and me and Big, and we looked at all the wildlife. There were some sheep on a hill. They had one ear much bigger than the other. Big said Adrian and Sam had been involved with these sheep, but they turned out to be too much trouble.
R: Trouble how?
J: Too opinionated. There was also a termite’s nest that had what looked like an owl inside, but when it came out, it was a tiny jaguar. It wended its way through our legs.
R: Wended.
J: Yes.
R: And the opinionated sheep had one ear bigger than the other?
J: It might have been that I was seeing one ear edge-on.
