Hole

June 10, 2009
I dream I am in a faceoff with three men. One suddenly runs with superhuman speed towards a mirror and disappears into another dimension. I am left facing a vampire and a man with a mysterious hole in his back. I have in my hand a hook-like contraption that shoots, but I know that before I can shoot it I have to cock it, and by the time I cock it the man with the hole in his back will kill me. The man demands that I take my hook-like instrument, stick it into the hole in his back and see if it does anything. I know he’s toying with me, but I obey. He points out that it’s not killing him, but it’s very painful. I pull the weapon out immediately. The vampire is amused.

I dream I am in bed, but not sleeping. Even though it’s about 5 am, I turn on my gigantic projection television and watch strange, retro-looking cartoons featuring barnyard animals with wings. Just as I begin to doze, a technician comes into the room and complains about shoddy maintenance of their equipment. She says I’ve been sticking my fingers into various holes and sockets and dirtying them up. She also finds several grapes on the floor behind the bed. While I am sitting on a chaise lounge writing something, she fondles my ass.

I dream I am at some combination of New York University and a summer day camp. I am carrying a plate of latkes while following the head counselor, performance theorist and director Richard Schechner. I place the latkes on the ground carefully and go into a rustic bathroom facility that is being run by a schoolmarm. I step into a stall and there is no toilet, but there is a kitchen trash can into which I “go.” It keeps coming and coming. I notice that the schoolmarm is monitoring me through a hole in the wall. I am embarrassed, but the flow won’t stop. The schoolmarm nods with approval.
