 Detail from a painting by David Roberts (1796-1864): The Temple at Esneh. |
DREAM: April 25, 1987 I am on the beach. An air competition is starting, where a person flies over in a plane and they give him points. There's a monitor screen. The first plane is sort of amber colored, like it's lacquered. It flies straight across the sky and then does some maneuvers they are calling "barrel rolls," which are really forward flips. These were not supposed to be part of the stunt, but he did them anyway - his enthusiasm was showing. The judges give him very low marks on the required stunt, even though everyone in the crowd thought his end flips were fantastic. Someone next to me says, "That guy knows a lot about love." I expect them to say it's because he's been 'around,' but they say it's because he's been married for ten years to one woman." |
