its times like this that I am very thankful for the towel hanging across my window. I only have one window and its relatively small, so the towel does a fair job of blocking out most of the light. I was first motivated by the street light outside my window, but it is also especially useful when I find myself still awake at seven in the morning. (it happens more than youd think.) tonight my excuse is dreams.
I woke up about an hour ago with the ghost of a dream still manifesting in my head. since then the dream has mostly faded, but I remember this much. I had received a letter. though not an ordinary one. all the letters had been reduced to abstract geometric shapes that ran together and interlocked like a puzzle. some still resembled words, but most were so far removed from their original meaning that they lost it completely. it read like a maze. and yet somehow I read it anyway. and though written in a code I could never break, its meaning was clear. it asked for answers. and I knew I could not give them.
