Description
last night i had this
dream and we were in california,
the place of all teen movies
with substance.  and you and i
were going to the beach
and near the beach there were
beach houses and we got wet
but forgot our bathing suits.

we found a dog.  it was a
terrier.  a light brown creamy
terrier.  i used to have a doll
that looked like how this dog
looked.  we found it and it
was the nicest dog i'd ever seen.
it followed us, more of a
living stuffed animal
than a pet.

he was the perfect dog,
but we got trapped in the wet basement
of a beach house that hid the tide beneath it.
the dog would swim between us
but the way out was a ladder.
we took a blanket and tied it
like a sling for babies
to take the dog up the ladder.
then when we were out of the ocean,
it was a beach house in the city.

we had to answer questions
about ourselves to a person we know
and stand by them.  i loved the dog.
i know it's okay.
but he's not in the dream anymore.
i answered questions strongly
while you did what you do and
looked around under tables
to see what was up.  in the end
the surveys were complete
for whatever purpose they served
and i was still smiling.
