The cool,
wet slurp against my bare arm brought me out of a fragmented dream in which I
could not find my way out of a dark, dank forest. No matter how hard I pushed forward branches
grabbed my face and vines wrapped their sinew like lengths around my legs and
arms. For a moment I lay still, letting
the dream fade as I listened to the quiet of my room. I opened my eyes to the yawning maw of my
favorite canine sitting only inches away at the side of my bed, waiting for me
to take him outside.
