I had a dream last night that I was in a car with Larry Eigner and Allen Ginsberg. Larry was driving. We drove over wooden slats in a muddy field and got stuck. Larry was extremely upset that he ruined Allen’s car. Allen didn’t care. And then Gregory Corso appeared and suddenly we were standing in a wooded area beside a rotting graveyard. The moon was so large it consumed half the sky, and it was light orange. An eerie orange. I fumbled with my phone to take a picture of it, and then I woke up.

Weird dream department: last night I dreamed I died and was promptly pressed into service in a kind of poet's community, everybody showing up from Bob Creeley to Charles Olson ("Big Charlie" he was called), Jack Spicer, Robert Duncan & many more. It turned out to be in a kind of bar where everyone was expecting to sing beer songs (Trinklied, the German tinkled in my ears) with unabashed & perpetual gusto. Everyone seemed to be wearing bearskin body-suits.

I dreamed me. In the dream I was who I am at the age I am searching for something I did not know what until I found myself as an infant with a white blanket drawn up to my shoulders, lying on my back, arms in the air wiggling my fingers at myself as I bent over myself, and we touched our finger tips, and I felt a peaceful joy.

This morning I had a dream that seems to recur every few years, wherein I find that Frank didn't really die. This time he had moved to San Francisco. I was in the hospital or something and found him on facebook. I contacted him and told him I really needed him to come home. Then he was here. Very happy to see him, gave him a big hug. He looked twenty years older but well, and just like Frank. I felt very sad that he had missed the entire upbringing of our son, and I knew he was going to go back to San Francisco, to a life he had built without us.

In a morning / before-waking dream, I was on
stage at a small theater venue, like an art-house movie theater, a full
house for a poetry slam. I was to read from my collection “Bad Poetry
For James Franco”, and was giving my spiel / intro…that the writing of
these poems kept me from punching James Franco in the throat for his
seeming overall mission to make the world safe for the straight white
male by inserting himself into so many marginalized roles [such as,
photographically replicating Cindy Sherman in her iconic feminist body
of work “Untitled Film Stills 1977 - 80”, mimicking her poses, clothing
and locations though not shaving his own iconic facial hair — and
providing bad and patronizing poetry to accompany her own photos); by
playing two known homosexual poets on film, Ginsberg and Hart Crane;
playing a wigga gangster with gold front and cornrows in Harmony
Korine’s “Springbreakers”; pretty much lifting Kenneth Anger’s whole
film “Fireworks”, in which a young man sexually fantasizes about being
beaten up by a group of more macho boys; and his selfies project, and
his own panned poetry…why would he do all this? What compelled him to
make the world safe for the SWM?…etc…THEN he stands up from the seated
crowd and says to me, walking towards me in the aisle, “c’mon, I’m right
here…punch me” and I explain that oh, I don’t need to now as through
this poetry project I worked it out…and he is still walking, this time
onto the stage with me, “come on, punch me I’m Right Here.” And I
explain more that in writing about him, in his voice, I sort of got him,
all his need to get 7 MFAs and read poetry for MoMA…that it’s a thing
to do, because he can, it’s a new thing, a way to expand because he can,
and I get it and I don’t need to punch him anymore. And he says
“oh..”. And his shoulders relax. And he says “well now that I’m up
here, I realize you don’t have anyone to sign for the crowd during your
reading. I know ASL, American Sign Language, and would be happy to sign
for you.” So I said sure, great, have at! Thanks! And he stood on
the edge of the stage and signed with his hands as I read from my book.
Then I woke up.
I dreamed I was visiting with Trevor Moffat, the lead guitarist
of my first teenage rock band. I had agreed to plastic surgery in which we
would switch appearances entirely: faces, hair, etc. I was very sad about it,
but sure I must have agreed for some good reason which I couldn’t remember. At
different points in the dream, I also told various people I met that Trevor and
I had exchanged names. People still seemed to recognize me.
Early in the dream, I got out of Trevor’s car at his modernist house
and went to a Soviet pub. The place was full of brutish workers. I left my seat
to ask the indifferent server for some French fries, and when I got back, a guy
was sitting in my chair and had drank all my beer. I sat next to him, refusing
to be intimidated. His friend, a guy across the table started talking to me.
They were German. He was talking about people in northern British Columbia,
mostly holed up little cabins, and I mentioned that yes, I knew the man he
called The Master; I revealed that I knew his name to be Richard Teitelbaum. He
corrected my pronunciation, but accepted what I was saying. We discovered we
had other people in common. They were a little warmer to me after that.

In
a pub with a group of friends. A romantic proximity with Kevin
(Thurston). Standing against a wall in the pub, faces close, laughing.
Someone reveals they need to blind me--someone other than Kevin, I
think. At first the man tries to explain why in the pub. I imagine
accessing all my other senses, what it would be like to be blind, the
possible claustrophobia or panic. Then there is strangely some appeal. I
am not as afraid as you would think. Outside, a van full of women, one
of whom is Lisa Gross, a college friend I haven't seen for 30 years. I
am obviously preoccupied and am in a hurry to leave. This reoffends the
college friend, and she disappears into the pub, as I apologetically
look at the remaining group of women. I begin to fly, albeit awkwardly
at first, to get away from the man that wishes to blind me. Then I am
flying full force, 20 feet above the ground. I stop in front of a
building, perhaps where Lee (Gough) lives as I am trying to get to her.
He has caught up with me, explains why I must be blinded. It makes
sense, and I wake.

last night i dreamed that i gave birth to two babies. one was a regular
baby. the other was a kangaroo. i was a bit afraid of the kangaroo so i
nailed its front paw to the floor so that it wouldn't hop all over the
house. then i decided to tell the father that he was a father of both a
baby and a kangaroo somehow, even though we have not seen each other in
years. he was surprised and asked me not to tell anyone. he didn't want
his current wife who is pregnant to find out that she might give birth
to a kangaroo.
late last night near morning, I’m on a boat. tidy, motel-like room. a
tuxedo'd, Costanza-ish dude keeps poking his head in to tell me
“Trotsky is almost here! Trotsky is almost here!” then, a guy climbs in
thru the window, who is Trotsky, tho he looks nothing like Trotsky, and
I’m very excited to see him, because we’re old, dear friends. I kiss him
on the forehead. he is exhausted and needs to lay down. I say in
russian, “dear Lev, it is so good to be here with you again.” he lays down and doesn’t say much.
but wait, I think, it’s 2016. it can’t be Trotsky. so why’d I call him
Lev? it’s a pun about art, I decide. “did you like the joke about art?” I
ask Trotsky. Trotsky answers, “on a boat, everything one says is a joke
about art.” I decide this is true and Trotsky is great
then I realize that it can’t be a pun about art, because calling someone Lev has absolutely no relationship to art. instead I tell him, “I call you Lev because you are our lion!” (this makes more sense because the name Lev, as in Trotsky, Tolstoy, or Schreiber, means “lion.”)
he looks over at me and says, “I am the Other Trotsky.”
then I wake up and see this! I believe this is as poorly as it is possible for the human mouth to produce the sounds of french. I believe Trotsky may have been a wooden figurine who sat too near a xmas tree & was accidentally turned alive by magic.
& most of all, I eagerly anticipate meeting the Other Trotsky, may his Other Revolution come soon.

Strange dream this morning. In the dream Robin and I were going to
visit my dad but when we got there my dad wasn't there and it wasn't his
place. The compound was a beehive of activity, lotsa country yeehaws
and rednecks wandering around. I asked someone where we were and they
named a county that was no where near my dad's house and then informed
me that they were all vampires. Robin said she was fascinated by
vampires and sat down to have a drink with a couple of them.

I
dreamt that we were driving on a highway in Massachusetts, and there
was an accident. We ended up abandoning our car and somehow
commandeering an empty yellow cab, which we drove all the way home,
several hours to the south. Then, we were getting ready to go to my
sister-in-law Maude Kent’s in Philadelphia, and realized we couldn’t
take the cab. What were we going to do with it? I thought of driving
the cab to a street I remembered from childhood near the Garden State
Parkway in East Orange, N.J., and ditching it, but that could backfire,
and we wouldn’t have a car. I also thought about our abandoned car in
Massachusetts and figured no one would trace it to us. How would I join
up with Louisa and the kids in Philadelphia? Maybe instead of
commandeering the cab, we should have stayed with our car and arranged
for it to be fixed. Sure, it would have set us back a few hours, but we
wouldn’t have all these problems now.

I
dreamt that I was walking with a friend on the sidewalk and we passed a
driveway, bordered with pillars, that led to a shady estate. The place
was very similar to the corner of Ralston Ave. and Grove Rd. in South
Orange, N.J., near my friend Mark Woldin’s childhood house, except there
wasn’t a driveway there; the driveway for the old Board of Education
building was closer to South Orange Ave. As we crossed the gravel
driveway, I perceived someone in the shade, a man. He pointed a handgun
at me and looked like he was about to fire. Terrified, I turned and
tried to run around the corner. Two shots rang out. I felt both hit
me, in the right shoulder. I went down. I lay flat on my back. It
felt very natural. I didn’t feel any pain. My friend ran away around
the corner. I suddenly worried the gunman would walk up and shoot me in
the head execution-style. I thought about trying to get up and run
away. But my body quickly communicated that that was unthinkable. I
had been flattened by the wounds. I just had to lie there and hope for
the best.

This morning I had a wild, elaborate dream that Bernie Sanders came to
Dreamtime Village. I was showing him some of the handmade music
instruments we had made years ago and he picked up an electric bass and
started playing a really funky slap bass groove. The dream then cuts to
me showing him proudly my newly published Samsara Congeries and he
immediately finds a typo and then launches into a very studied critique
of experimental writing, grinning all the while.

A Stop Along the Milky Way for Some Tiramisu
To follow the path of combusting stars
from sky
to the very world
that receives the starlight
requires a stop along the Milky Way.
I chance this sojourn
not knowing how it will figure
in the overall promise
or composition of the world
replete with errors,
tropes, and falsifications.
During the cold night that has been chosen
for its resplendence,
my words and the combusting stars
wander from their accustomed place.
I taste the sweet lift-me-up
that helps to fashion a fortunate life.
Blessed is that raw slumber
to which a dream is affixed.
Calamity Control
Without great cause
to whimper and whine,
I am content now to daydream,
looking out at the unadorned sky,
re-living how a flowerpot fell
from a brownstone’s windowsill
the moment I passed by
on customary city walk from here to there.
The thud was not as great
as when the plastic bottle of Evian
fell in the same fashion, different day,
just missing me.
So I envisioned country wicker.
Find a porch with some curvature
to receive the sun’s benediction.
Expect that rain
will be the only thing falling —
and the only intrusion,
some handsome deer, nibbling.

I
dreamt that Sam Truitt and I accompanied my late mother and stepfather to a
theatrical event. We walked up to the marquee in a small town and picked up
our tickets. As we walked away in the afternoon light, cars were pouring
into the town, including many limos, with people who wanted to see the show.
It seemed strange that people were arriving so early. It was
slightly dangerous to cross the main street, which made a big turn coming into
town. We went into a supermarket, where Mom and Eli were buying some
things. I told them to get a pack of cigarettes. When they emptied
their bag at the cash register, two packs of cigarettes spilled out.
I hadn’t asked for two packs. And what brand were they? After the
purchase, we sat at a table going through the purchases. Mom was holding
the theater tickets in one hand while she went through the items, and that
created a coordination problem for her. Eli pressed her to go through the
items more quickly. Mom turned to Eli and said, “I can’t do it so
fast,” but what she was really saying was, “Please don’t be hard on me,
especially in front of them.”

I
dreamt that I was giving a poetry reading, going second. It was in a big room, below street
level. I was trying to decide whether to
read the introduction to Fleeting
Memories or to Inner Voices Heard
Before Sleep. I made a decision, but
then a woman I respected persuaded me not to carry it out. Meanwhile, there was a delay between the
first reader and me. The MC was
addressing a bunch of unnecessary questions from someone. I looked around the room. It had thinned considerably in the
interim. Was Clark Coolidge still
there? I wanted him to hear me. My work buddy Rob Rossi was standing near the
MC. I walked up to him. He asked how things were going. I said, “Not great.” Then I reached out and touched him on the arm
and gave him a big smile. For some
reason, I believed touching him on the arm would make me feel better, and it
did. I even noticed a few people coming
down the ramp into the room.

Last night I dreamed that Trump was elected President and I joined a
citizen militia whose goal was to hide and care for illegal immigrants. I
had a gun and everything, and we were hiding people away in little
houses in the middle of the woods. In the dream I was like, wow, I never
thought this day would come.

Like Deer
I am jogging with George.
We are running along a country lane.
We don’t talk. He is slightly
ahead. There is a hedge
on the left. I feel like he wants
to go that way. I might want
to go that way, too. He turns
left, right into and through
the hedge, which is velvety
and dense like a dream. Maybe
it will work for me. I turn. It is
thick and sticks to me
like flesh. I emerge slowly,
can barely move, have hedge
all over me like caterpillar
fur or armor or a new layer
of me. George is moving well ahead
up a path between the lawns
of two old properties. He is
nearing the trees. With effort
I pull off a few clumps.
My stride and breathing loosen.
I catch up and we run
blithely through the woods.
Her Embrace
Went to the old apartment on Bedford.
It was gutted on the inside.
Walls torn out. New beams put in
in the basement. I used the old keys.
She comes in. I say something. She runs away.
I have to explain myself to myself
and leave. Across the street is the diner
everyone goes to. I am sure to see
the people I met earlier there. Or is it
a cemetery? I come to the town square
and start driving around it. The huge trees
on the green hang over the road.
She is on the green. I see her from
the side. She is on her way, striding even,
under the trees. This time when I go
around the square the car is out of control,
starts to slide off the road into the dark,
snow-covered arms of the trees.

I dreamt that I entered a large living
room where many of my relatives were sitting.
My cousin Eve Lyman told me that her late father, Uncle Abe Chayes, was
in an adjacent room, and that I should go and talk with him. I entered the room, a very large room with a
cathedral ceiling. Uncle Abe was
supposedly sitting on the couch in the middle of the room. But it wasn’t Uncle Abe. It was my long-dead father. I asked Dad a question, and he said that the
key to politics in this town was bowling.
If you could bowl high numbers in the bowling league (a fact that I had
slightly forgotten about Dad), people would do anything for you. Dad started to make a further point and
stopped mid-sentence, like a jukebox that had run out of money. He wasn’t allowed to continue, or wasn't able to
continue. It was very disturbing.
*
I
dreamt that I had blown off my courses
for most of a semester. I was walking
around the upper floors of a huge high school looking for my classes.
There was something Victorian or Gothic or
both about the building. I poked my head
into a cavernous math classroom. I
couldn’t figure out where the class was in the textbook. I couldn’t
follow anything. I continued down a hall and turned a corner,
and saw another one of my classes through a glass wall. I entered.
But they were having a little reception, drinks and pastries, and I had
no real right to join them, and it wouldn’t help me catch up from being
so far
behind. I went looking for another
class. It was supposed to be on the top
floor as well, but you couldn’t access that area from where I was. I
took an elevator down to the first
floor. Looking for a way to get to the other
part of the top floor, I wandered into two first-floor rooms, which were
actually art galleries and apartments belonging to two young men. It
was surprising to find apartments in the
school. I stepped outside in front of
the school, which looked like the front of my old high school, Columbia
High
School in Maplewood, N.J. I looked up at
the roof to see if I could figure out where this other classroom was.
Indeed, there were these glassed-in sections
that bloomed on parts of the roof. Now,
I had to figure out where the elevator was that would get me to the
correct
glassed-in section.

I
dreamt that we were leaving a vacation
spot in Maine where we had shared a house with another family. Their
baby was sleeping in the big back
room. Someone had awakened it. Maybe me.
And the mother had puts notes all over the place, warning people not to
wake the baby. What should we do today
with the little time we had left? Where
hadn’t we gone? Schoodic Point. The rocky coast right nearby. We
decided on the rocky coast. Before that, we stopped at an ancient
church. As we left, someone wondered if the
church’s ancient objects would be distributed to the other German
churches in
town, where they had been originally located.
I said this church had a special status and could keep all the objects.
A local sitting near the exit agreed. We
both agreed it was nice the church was so ancient, though I added it
would be
better if it were even more ancient, truly ancient, say, built in 600
A.D. I crowded into the other family’s car, which
was parked very near a red car. As our
friend gunned out of the parking lot, he scraped the red car. He wasn’t
aware of it, but I could see the
people in that car were. The car
followed us, making a big turn on someone’s lawn. The car turned into a
frightening power-company
or phone-company vehicle. It could do a
lot of damage to us. But it headed down
a street with low overhanging wires, which it could never get through.
We ultimately parked somewhere and I cleaned
all of our stuff out of the back of their car.
They were heading back to Cambridge,
even though it had snowed a lot there.
Before they left, I ran back to the car and shook the guy’s hand and
said, “Great spending time with you, let’s do it again.” I was glad I
hadn’t forgotten to do that.

I
dreamt I was walking on a residential
city street late at night, smoking a hand-rolled cigarette. A police
car suddenly pulled up next to
me. Even though it wasn’t pot, I chucked
the cig, so there wouldn’t be an appearance of impropriety. The
policeman emerged covered from head to
toe in high-tech armor, especially his head.
He looked like a gigantic insect or alien. I gasped in fear. He
reached for his gun and said, “What?” “You frightened me,” I said. He
took me to a mobile outdoor police station,
basically a vehicle with an open trunk.
Several other perps waited there to pay fines and fill out
paperwork. I only had to fill out
paperwork. There was no fine for me,
which was slightly surprising, but seemed right, since I hadn’t done
anything
wrong. As I was leaving, the cops asked
if I had seen much tennis lately, which was also slightly surprising. I
told them very cheerfully that I had played a
lot of tennis and hoped to play more. Then I walked away into the late,
late
night.
*
I dreamt I was sitting next to an
Italian guy on a bench in Venice. We started talking to each other in Italian
about Italian poetry, going through all the great names. I mentioned Giovanni Pascoli, to his delight,
then Guido Gozzano. Then, we turned to Eugenio
Montale. He said that late in life
Montale had frequented places like this.
He pointed to a twisting covered passageway with an outdoor restaurant
by the entrance. “Montale would eat a
hamburger at a place like that.” I
decided to eat there. A waitress came up
to me. We spoke Italian. I struggled to communicate with her in exactly
the same way that I would struggle to communicate with someone in Italian if I were
awake, making the same language decisions, the same compromises to communicate
something. I ordered a hamburger, but
then was surprised when a waiter brought a bowl of soup, which didn’t have much
soup in it, but was “all crackers.” I hoped
it didn’t cost much.

Long conversation with Peter Culley
two nights ago in a dream. Going over the 1970s, sharing his secrets.
As always, with Peter, a deep feeling of ease and affect. He was, since
the first moment, "uno di famiglia," a member of the family. There is a
spot in the front yard where we all stood during his last visit to
Bangor -- it feels occupied as if something had been planted and is just
about to burst from the ground. Any moment now. Always now.

Dreamt that they bombed Upaya North. Not sure who they is/was. But in
the dream, Upaya was this cool looking library / classroom w/ media. I
was teaching my final class of a workshop for the term. And we had to
move to the Ginsberg Library due to the destruction. GL was this amazing
space w/ a spiral staircase that went to a basement and the decor was
1970s chic. And the walls were red. A plush fabric. With funky bean bag
chairs. And beads at doorways or on the wall. With green accents. And
the students performed a somatic symphony. On a stage. In the library. I
can still hear the cello.

Last night I dreamed friends were coming for Thanksgiving dinner. I was
in a penthouse where I had never lived before, and I wasn't sure how
many people I'd invited or when I'd told them to come. Things had been
complicated because I'd just been involved in a train accident (not my
fault) although I was able to recover my computer, but not my guitar,
which was both unfortunate and fortunate, because I was due to give a
concert with the poet Elaine Equi (which is why I was on the
train) and I hadn't rehearsed at all. Were Jewish friends coming for
dinner, could I somehow get a kosher turkey in time? Here it was already
noon, and I hadn't even done the shopping. How was I even going to get a
turkey, much less a kosher one, at this late hour? Harry Kresky, a
friend I like but never see texted me with the question: "Is it at 1?"
My God, how many friends had I invited? What was I going to do? Akram
and I went quickly to shop. We were going to have to buy a lot of wine
too to keep guests busy doing something—my plan was to get them all
drunk—till all the food was done. Maybe they'd let us borrow a shopping
cart at the supermarket to get everything back to the penthouse. Turkey,
yams, stuffing, gravy, mashed potatoes—Yikes! Outside was like a suburb
of Shanghai near the water or maybe more like a favela in Rio. Either
way, where was a supermarket? And could I speak the language? The alarm
clock rang. Have I ever been so happy to wake up? Well, I have. Usually I
am trying to catch a plane for Paris with endless complications getting
to and being at the airport (usually there is marijuana in my luggage
when I am going through customs and how am I going to get rid of
that?—Quick, to the bathroom!), or I am about to teach a class I haven't
prepared for and have to ad lib the whole darned curriculum.
Thanksgiving dinner is a new one. Must be the season. I am going to the
gym to do the bike, lift some weights, have a nice sauna and sweat
whatever the heck this anxiety is out.

I
dreamt that a British couple was
walking through the newsroom. They were
looking at our nameplates. “Who are
these people?” one of them said, as if we weren’t there. I had a
feeling the woman wanted one of our
jobs. I started talking to the woman,
who also turned out to be a poet. I
sensed that I seemed shameless to my fellow workers. The woman and I
went for a walk outside. I asked her about her poetry. While I
couldn’t understand her accent
perfectly, I gathered that her tastes were Victorian. I said we seemed
to be on the opposite ends
of poetry. During the walk, the woman became
worried she would miss her subway, a G train, which ran above ground
like a
suburban train line. I said we would be
able to see it coming over the landscape.
We avoided a wet area, then bent low to walk underneath a weeping
willow. I asked if she knew my old
friend Roland Vernon, a British novelist.
She didn’t. At a house we entered,
the phone was ringing and water was boiling on the stove, but no one was
home,
which was very disturbing.
*
I dreamt that the poet Peter Gizzi came
to see me at my childhood home in South Orange, N.J. I pulled up some chairs near where the outdoor
playhouse used to be. I had a messy bag
of rolling tobacco, from which we harvested cigarettes. He asked me if switching from working
part-time to full-time had made me more bourgeois. I said I didn’t think so, but that something
else had. I told him that when I was
working part-time in South Brunswick, N.J., I sat next to a guy named Bob
Cwiklik. My mentioning Bob conjured him
up, and he joined us on the chairs under the giant white pine. One day, I said, Bob and I were walking to
get coffee, and he said to me, “I don’t know if you realize this, but your
assets are losing value every day. Have
you been to Europe lately? The dollar doesn’t buy anything.” The implication was that the eroding value of
my assets—and the need to do something about it—was what had made me bourgeois,
which was totally untrue. At that point,
we went into the house, which was different from our Montrose Ave. house, more
a warren of rooms. I lost track of
Peter, then I gathered that he had encountered my wife, Louisa, and she didn’t
recognize him, which upset me. I shot
into the dining room to prevent another faux pas. Soon, Peter had to leave. He was going to walk back to the train
station in South Orange Village. It
wasn’t the same walk that it used to be, but flatter and shadier. As we stood near my back door, it started to
drizzle. It looked like it was going to
rain hard. I offered Peter an umbrella, insisted
that he take it, but he was sure that he didn’t need one.

The Paris Air Show of 1922
In
a dream, I am in an old mansion basement, feverishly scrounging through
boxes of old pamphlets, on a table, as other collectors and dealers are
doing likewise at my side, when I happen upon an old booklet, bound in
limp green leatherette, showing a picture of a bi-plane tilted up in
flight. The pilot, his head encased in a form-fitting leather cap, and
large goggles, is seen waving from the cockpit towards the viewer.
Across the top of the cover, it reads, in darker green, “S O U V E N I R
– Paris Air Show 1922.” In the dream, I wake up and go downstairs to
the computer to see if there really was a
Paris Air Show in 1922, and to my surprise, there was! Later, I
“really” wake up and come downstairs to see if there really was a Paris
Air Show in 1922, thinking if there really was one, that would be some
kind of wonderful coincidence, since air show pamphlets, and aviation
generally, aren’t subjects that I've ever dealt in as a book trader.
I
discover that the Paris Air Show (or “Salon”), the world’s oldest and
largest, originally was begun in 1909. There was a Paris Air Show in
1921, but I can’t find a record of one in 1922. In the seventh (1921)
show, a prototype of the so-called French Breguet 19, based on a World
War I light bomber, powered by a Bugatti engine, was first shown. A new
design of the same craft flew in March 1922, but it doesn’t say where.
It was the model for the French Army’s Aéronautique Militaire from
September 1923 on. It was used in the Greco-Italian War, in World War
II, primarily as a reconnaissance aircraft. It was used by a number of
European countries, as well as some in the Western Hemisphere.

Did
I once see such a booklet, or did I conjure one up in my dream? The
obsessive book scout in me is perfectly capable of inventing such an
object. I go back to bed, hoping to return to the scene I have created
in my imagination. Perhaps I am fantasizing that I can bring the
imaginary pamphlet back from the dreamworld into the real one. Or
perhaps I am simply enjoying the experience of having made something up
that has a probable counterpart in the real world. Thus, my writing this
account--a prosepoem of the dream--is a partial realization of that
desire.

I dreamt that I was taking a train with
my dead father and my younger sister, Liz. We sat in the front car, where
we could see very well out the bus-like windshield. Dad started to have a
heart attack. His face—it wasn’t really his, but that of a thinner
guy—turned very red. We tried to get the train to stop, so we could take
him to the hospital, but the train was an express and wouldn’t stop for a
half-hour. I argued with the conductor. We sped through local
stations. It was ridiculous. Dad was lying on the floor. His
face was very red. Then he died. As soon as he did, his body
vanished in the blink of an eye, like magic.

I dreamt that a brilliant orange and
white bird was flying around above a suburban street. It perched on top of
a streetlight. I had the feeling it would fly into my arms. I
opened my arms, and sure enough, it flew to me. In my arms, it wasn’t
orange and white, but furry brown like a bunny. There was another bird,
too, that flew to me. I took the second bird back to the place where I
was staying, a big suburban house that reminded me of one on Irving Ave. in
South Orange, N.J., a few blocks away from my childhood home. The bird
lived there for a while, flying around the downstairs rooms, but then decided
it was time to leave, so we let it out the door.
*
I dreamt that my former brother-in-law,
Larry Travis, was getting married in a reception hall in Iraq. Larry made
a little speech in which he alluded to something that happened to Jack Kennedy
and Jackie. As I stood outside, smoking, it suddenly occurred to me,
“This is Iraq, it might not be so safe.” I looked around. From
where I stood, I could look down several outer-borough-type streets with
relatively low buildings. I didn’t see anything special. A few
ordinary people. But when I focused intently, on one thing after another,
the scene felt menacing. I realized that problems could suddenly emerge
from a number of directions. Back inside, a young woman called a group of
us together in a small room behind the reception hall. She asked us, “Do
any of you want to get out of Iraq?” I think several of us indicated we
did, including me. Then she asked, “Are any of you Jewish?” This
was a confounding question, partly because several of us obviously were, and she
seemed Jewish. I wasn’t sure how to answer. This might be a trick
question, designed to identify with certainty a Jew, who would then be killed.

After insomnia: strange dreams. I worked in an institution that was a
maze with cafes and shops. To enter, one had to strip in a DRs office,
wear a hospital gown, and then was given a box lunch of paraphernalia.
Apparently, I was leaving said institution because I hugged everyone I
passed in the hall and said: if I don't see you, goodbye. Heather Sweeney was married to a cartoon dictator. Amy Arenson
made jewelry with beach glass. A table was littered with flower buds.
Someone remarked: everyone's poetry here is too much in the head.

It started like a typical teaching anxiety dream--I had an hour to prep
for the first day of a class I forgot I was teaching--but then a glowing
woman sat down beside me and started buying me lovely coffee drinks,
and every drink also gave me several extra hours. It only took us a few
minutes to determine that my whole class would be based on using
cooty-catchers to organize your writing and get rid of writer's block.
The rest of the time we just flirted and talked about the really
interesting book she was writing.

We
stole a tugboat, not exactly a tug but a
boat that was old wooden and boxy - one cabin - as in most of the boat
was that
one cabin. Was with myself and 2 women friends of varied identities -
they were
always the same 2 women tho at one point one was a boy - but that was
nothing
to remark on and she was a woman again. I knew we’d make it if we
hurried - we
had a place to go, an apartment, a hideout, on Fountain north of
Hollywood
Blvd. - tho no locale was specified I was seeing it as Fountain. We
were on a big blue remote lake 15 minutes from Hollywood of the 70s. I
used a color stick on my hair, threw packaging in the wastebasket,
shouted
Should we take out the trash - eliminated evidence of our presence there
- I was always aware we had a destination, rescue, a way out and that we
should get off the tug. At one point I was in the water swimming to
another shore though. It was nice to be swimming but
I wasn’t doing the crawl so much as some sort of active floating.
Treading? The
water was good. Dark blue and the right kind of cold but I was aware it
was not
pristine. Instantly and "off camera" fishermen brought me back to the
tug (kind as the fishermen who rescued Jeremy Renner in Bourne or it
might have
been Matt Damon). Thing is I had elaborate knowledge and was frustrated
my
friends didn’t and didn’t care. I imagined the tug owner's personality
and likelihood
she'd detect our presence - and wanted the hell to just get off it and
move on.
Prior to commandeering the tug we didn't commit a crime. So much
thinking
ON the water (in retrospect). Worry frustration detailed knowledge
unheeded by
the carefree, awareness of the adventure, the voyage, the trip, the
possible hideout funky and sunny. Redux on the prior - a winding road.

Fragments of three dreams from this morning: 1. Karen is pregnant, and
the doctor assures me (without evidence) that I'm the father. 2. I
return to my old workplace to retrieve enormous piles of my personal
possessions, mostly books, all of which are stored in Denis'
office (his official one, which he doesn't actually use). 3. The entire
movie, It's a Wonderful Life, with Alan Alda as George Bailey, ending
with a monster coming out of the woods and down to a stream during the
credits—then the image freezes and the voiceover announces the remake of
The Creature from the Black Lagoon will come out next year.

Bested by the tropics, after a harrowing no AC cab ride during which the
driver pulled over no less this five times to ask for directions to a
relatively near destination, I fell into a strange sleep of perhaps the
most menacing dream-hallucinations I have ever had, experiencing other
people's and my own most profound viciousness: there was a party, many
friends were there but seemed sinister, one (a married person) pressed
himself lustfully against my back body, another man not a friend flicked
a cigarette into food I was eating and then freaked when I confronted
him on it, accusing me in an almost hebephrenic way of "privilege", I
and others flew/swooped around the room, a kind of dark loft space, and I
reached into the mouth of someone who offended me and bent his front
tooth completely forward. And these are only the incidents I vaguely
recall. Yangon in this season is truly dizzying and the weather seems to
act as hallucinogen. Much respect and compassion for the people who
must withstand it daily, and cook hot food at their roadside food carts
or drive boiling taxis in diesel smog, triply dazed by betel nut and
centuries of oppression.

Last night, I dreamt that Vanessa Place was my physician, and I visited her for some now unrecallable ailment. I can't remember exactly what she said to me in the dream -- probably something like this from her @vanessaplace2 Twitter account: "Wanting to be a poet is like wanting a bad cough," or "All you are is either a symptom or material." Or this from an interview at Fanzine: "All we are are our symptoms, and we do love our symptomology…".

bizarre dreams update: just before waking today, the last dream i had
featured badgers the size of and seemingly crossed with leeches that
lived under pieces of wood. i was out in a dreamtimish area working with
a small group of people when i first discovered these ferocious mini
beasts, and the dream ended as Rani Ji
& i worked in an area away from the others, by a road where i moved
a piece of wood and 2 or 3 of these beasts came after me (while Rani
was laughing, i was scared).

I was scheduled to perform 3 or 4 songs with an old friend in a small NYC performance space - somewhere I've never been or seen in real life. There were a lot of people there. I was going to be playing the guitar, and the songs were originals that I had written with my friend. As it got closer to playing time, I could not remember the songs, could not retrieve or piece together the chords, progressions -- it was just outside the grasp of my memory. The songs could not be performed without my part, so we ended up having to cancel the performance, though I know it was a terrible disappointment to my friend. I realized that I could no longer ignore all the signs and indications that I had previously been ignoring: I definitely had Alzheimer's.

In my dream I was watching an opera
on television. Already this was strange, as in waking life I'm utterly
uninterested in opera. It appeared to be a nineteenth-century Italian opera. A
pair of twins—short, fat, bald, dark Sicilian-looking men in Renaissance
costume—were singing an aria in unison. I knew that they were singing about
guilt, but I don't know whether this was because I understood the words or was
familiar with the libretto. Then I realized that one of the twins had just
realized that the other twin was not his brother at all, but rather a
manifestation of his own guilty conscience.
At this point, Roberto
Benigni, the Italian comic actor, appeared on stage singing the same aria. He
seemed startled and upset by the presence of the bald twins. He made
exaggerated comic gestures that signaled his fear, as if in a silent film
comedy. He ran to the back of the set and hid behind a curtain, then peeked out
at the twins with an ambiguous smile on his face. At this point I could tell
that Benigni had realized that the twins were not real people, but rather
representations of his own guilt. This liberated him to leap out from behind
the curtain and continue singing his aria. The twins had disappeared.
The perspective in the dream
then shifted from the stage set on TV to the room in which I was watching the
program. There was another man in the room, sitting in a chair with his back to
me. He was a large, bald man. I had no idea who he was.
"What am I feeling guilty
about?" I said to the back of the man's head.

A dream where I cannot sleep and end up at my psychoanalyst’s house.
She is doing a dance of some kind of dance to demonstrate something to
me, to elaborate on something she had used words to say earlier. Also
her husband is there. He is an older man with gray hair and a beard,
bald and in a disheveled state. He is sitting at their computer and
uploading songs to something like a USB or an iPod, and says something
about doing it for her because of the road trip she or they are
taking soon. Later we are standing on her balcony and discussing music,
and she is telling me why she loves the composer she had danced to
earlier, and I say “so you don’t like the atonal stuff?” and she shakes
her head. The composer she likes is a man with an n and an o in his name
but that’s all I can remember. I stumble around their house in the
early dawn with the light dim and everything kind of blue in her
apartment. Her son and his wife are sleeping in one room. I don’t get to
the room she and her husband with grey hair and beard are in. I end up
outside in an area that is vaguely Milwaukee’s east side Oakland
Avenue-ish. I end up back home with an electronic device near my bed
which is very low to ground.

Last night I dreamed I went to the White House to meet Obama and he
took me down in the elevator into this hi-tech sub-basement and showed
me his vintage collection of centuries-old breakfast cereals. They were
all sitting out in the open on a steel table, and each one was in a
weird sack or bag with buffalo bill steampunk letting printed on the
package. He said "I try a different one every morning."

Just before sleep Carla
reminded me that yesterday was the anniversary of my father's death. I
promptly dreamt that a book on biopolitics cited him, thanking him for
answering queries on the point of death. When I woke up, I started to
look for that book, then realized it had been a dream. Then realized the
whole scenario was a dream: the stroke left my father paralyzed,
without speech; there was no answering queries at that point. (Even so,
I'd really like to find the book.)

I dreamt I was walking briskly away from
a guy with whom I had just talked briefly.
I passed my wife, Louisa, who was standing waiting in a large, dim living
room. I said to her, “I’m going to lock
myself in there and try to figure out something.” I closed the bedroom door behind me and
quickly locked it. It was very clear to
me the guy was going to follow me, soon, and stab me to death with a
knife. I looked around for a weapon.
*
I
dreamt I was returning to the place
where I had committed a murder in a previous dream. I was afraid I had
left my gun and my black leather traveling bag at the scene of the
crime, and I
wanted to retrieve them. I knew it was a
bad idea to go back, it could backfire on me.
And it might not matter if the gun were found. Still, I was going
back. I was crossing through backyards like in my
hometown of South Orange, N.J., behind the Gianottas’ house. What if
some kids saw me by the house where
the murder took place? I bent low to the
ground. The house itself was like a
place in one of those impoverished Buffalo
neighborhoods that Sam Truitt and I drove through a few months ago. I
entered the back of the house and then, to
the left, an alley-like room where the murder had occurred. Neither the
gun nor bag was there. The room was trashed, filled to shin level
with balls of crumpled paper. Leaving, I
passed a real-estate lady out back, already showing the place. Life was
“moving on” surprisingly rapidly
after the murder. This is a dream idea
I’ve had before, the murder that’s never really investigated, which
derives
from Gombrowicz’s Pornographia and Bolano’s 2666.
*
I
dreamt that my college friend Gary
Lovesky and some of his friends had visited me.
Now, they were leaving in their car.
Back inside the large house, a summer rental, a woman said I had missed
a phone call. I was waiting for a
call. I was waiting to hear my mother had
died. I almost yelled at the woman: “I
was right outside. Why didn’t you call
outside for me?” The phone rang
again. The woman answered it. Something bad had happened, but not
pertaining to me. The woman’s face
teared up. It turned out a member of the
Read family of Winter
Harbor had been
killed. I thought it was a sailing
accident. But then, in a vision within
the dream, I saw an explosion at a pizza shop send its huge stainless
steel
oven flying out the back wall, where it crushed the Read scion. As I
started to leave the living room, like
our “first living room” at my childhood home in South Orange, a guy said
something unpleasant to me. “Shut up
until you do some dishes,” I lashed back.
I returned to the kitchen sink, where I was finishing cleaning up after a
big dinner. Some punks followed me into
the kitchen and said I was going to get beat up. I agreed heartily, “No
way I’m strong enough
to beat him up,” which took them aback.
In a large added-on room with a high triangular ceiling, a young
yachtsman began talking to me about races.
He said that in high seas rocks could slide off the coast and jump a
couple of times, posing a real danger of smashing your boat. He headed
off to another race. Then, in this large room, an action hero
appeared. My pursuer came to the
entrance of the room. The campy hero
leaped on him, crushed him and then strode through a narrow doorway,
with Slim
or Thin written on the back of his robe, and someone saying, “That’s why
they
call him Thin.” Pursuers set off after
the action hero. I followed their dogs,
which tracked him into the sewers like in the movie “The Hunchback of
Notre
Dame.” They seemed to lose his track,
but then they spotted small tracks on the wet floor, turtle tracks. A
woman pointed to a small drain, said a
turtle could escape through there. It
worried me for a second. Then, something
eased my worries.
*
I
dreamt I was at a big suburban house like my childhood home. The doorbell rang. A delivery guy was there with a huge box,
too large for me to carry inside. Luckily, the delivery guy was a real
muscleman—and acrobat, spiderman and human butterfly. He leaped into the
air and stuck to the wall in the front hall, nearly naked now, flexing garish
muscles with tattoos. In the process, he had become much smaller, half
the size of a human. He left the box in a hallway that didn't exist at the
Montrose Ave. house. I couldn't move it. Later, it turned out that what
had arrived was a large, furry dog, almost motionless. They've all
tricked me into getting a dog, I thought.
I didn't feel that I could return it.

I was on the roof of a
hotel in New York with my friend Ryan Wugalter. We were
looking at the stars and talking, when suddenly there was an intense
meteor shower. When it was over, we climbed down a long yellow ladder
with a rickety fold-out section called a “keith.”
At the
bottom of the ladder, we met up with several other people, mostly our
friends from university. We all walked down the wide, cushy hotel halls
to a Japanese restaurant that made you a
pay a cover charge that was different for "public" or "private" seating;
we paid
for the cheaper public seating, and it meant we sat with strangers, so
we lost a
fair bit of our party at this point. The food was rows of little nubbins
like plasticine.
When we left, I had trouble getting all my correct checked stuff: bag,
sweater.
I had my laptop case with a shirt and a bunch of books, I think. There
was a
Japanese bookstore. I told the worker in the store that I couldn’t read
Japanese, although I thought the lettering was beautiful.
Next I was eating breakfast in a ground floor apartment in New York when first my mom, and then a stand-in for my mom, had a new
boyfriend who was demonic. He was a professor, and he had long, white goat ears. They disappeared
after I complimented him on them. I decided to pray, which filled the room
with a golden light, and as I continued, it caused the demon professor to melt into a
greasy puddle, which eventually disappeared. There were also two little kids there
who were demonically afflicted, and I prayed for them, but it was only partly
effective.
inoticed on the deck or terrace that my wife was tied up and being
tortured by a gang of youths. I brutally beat a few of them trying to save
her, picking them up by the legs and swinging them, smashing their heads into hard surfaces.

In my dream last night I was on another planet and was receiving a lesson, or being told how impractical it was that we lived on Earth in flesh suits that you couldn't take off. I was shown how on their planet you could unzip your flesh suit easily, or sometimes you didn't wear the suit at all. So I did this, and all of my organs were being interviewed, as if each organ was an individual, going to the doctor, getting a "check-up." I completely understood how sane it was to want to see your own machinery, so as to visibly register when something had gone askew. When I woke up, I began to think of the development of technology, of the covering of internal parts, so as to no longer see what was moving what, to no longer be able to dismantle a human being or a machine into parts, a seamless diaphanous flesh, which makes me think of hacking, and the retaliation against the surveillance of one surface, and the persistent action of breaking if not the human body, then all of matter, into discrete, and separatable elements.

Dreamed last night I was in Louisville, to deliver a lecture I hadn't yet written, & was visiting Guy Davenport on a dark, snowy evening. He was congenial as ever--if strangely overweight--& excited to show me that he'd gotten rid of most of his vast library. Some walls were simply bare; other bookcases were absolutely groaning with newly acquired gardening books---big illustrated volumes devoted to particular families of flowers and plants.

night i dreamed everyone had GIFs for tattoos, which made walking around
distracting and dangerous...the next thing i know i was in line at the
bank (which is weird b/c i haven't been inside a bank in years), when i
finally got to the window, the teller was talking but only images came
out of his mouth, and i was like WTF!, and the person behind me in line
whispers "yeah, that guy only speaks in GIFs"

parrot. i don't want roosters. i'm in the men's dorm by mistake. they
are all naked. i try to pretend like i don't notice. our apt. is
leaking. i try to get towels. i'm twisted in an awkward position between
tables and a man. i pry myself loose. a young girl is doing a
television interview. she is wearing a black leotard. her breast is exposed
and she doesn't know it. i think she will be so embarrassed. why didn't
they edit it out. i want to tell her someone was videotaping me dancing
once and the same thing happened to me. i never got to see the video
for some reason. i am walking in a city. maybe it's santa cruz. i am so
happy to be home where there is some activity, some life. the ocean air
feels wonderful. i don't know if you're there or not.

Perhaps I have been thinking too much about a new project, which
is about resistance against the compelling conviction that I am not
allowed to stay. I dreamt of light. That a person I once loved wanted me
to catch it and if I refused I would be killed. I managed to escape
before the walls closed in and began hastily throwing my suitcases into
the minivan. But there was no room for me. And so I ran to catch the
train. Of course, when I arrived it politely passed by without me: Excuse me, miss. I resigned myself to die.

dreamed
I was taking an intro creative writing class, first day, and the
instructor asked us all to free-write about "homes" from different
perspectives, and I wrote down the words RED HOUSE and then started
daydreaming, and when she called on my to read mine aloud and I said I
hadn't really finished anything, she made fun of me and rolled her eyes
and I wanted to say, "I have published several books, you know!" But I
did not because RED HOUSE.
I also dreamed I had a pair of pet raccoons I had to carry around with me everywhere in a double-sided cage; they had these long teeth, though, that I had to file down every day the way you'd sharpen a knife, holding the raccoons and running their teeth up and down the cage's stone edges.

Triple
nightmare last night: some kind of hippy family invaded my home from
the hill above, threatened to sue me when I asked them to leave. I
escaped them in my car but noticed the brakes completely stopped
working, so I coasted through the lights which miraculously each turned
green until I came to a stop on a hill. Then all these drivers started
yelling at me to get my car out of the street. Things started to get
ugly until we all got distracted by a giant rocket flying low around the
city. We realized it was a nuclear missile and waited for the the
detonation. But I did look up at the hill at my house, and the hippy
family was gone.

There
were two little red monkeys leaping back and forth over a snowy road. I
somehow snapped the corner off my handheld communication device, but it
still worked, and looked like molten glass and agate inside. A blond
man in a white van made big gestures, which I pretended not to notice. A
child was about to tell me something important, but we were interrupted
when I woke.

I had a Wes Anderson dream last night, that we bought an apartment on
the top floor of the "Hotel Violin," (too much time spent with a violin
restorer recently?). The building was an architectural dessert: art
nouveau, gold leaf, pastels. The elevator didn't make it up to the top
floor, so we took it as far as it went, pried the doors open, to go
higher.

dream:
with a wave of my hand the cyst on my chest falls off. then there is a
parade on the beach in aptos. what is it for? a celebration of life. it
is on my beach. it is going in the right direction. i dream inside my
dream. i tell someone about my dream inside my dream but i am still
dreaming. the back of an indian's head. black hair. denim jacket. i
don't know who u are. everything is going to
be fine. i have 3 male roommates. i've never seen them before. who told
u u could live here. i don't want new roommates. i don't want to live
with men. there is too much male energy in this house. i want u to
leave. i wanted to be alone. i wanted peace and quiet. i'm sorry but u
can't live here. i am trying to reach vhs tapes high on a dusty shelf. i
can't quite reach them without maybe falling off the stepladder and
breaking my neck. i take 3 little sample bottles of clinique lotion and
an open nail polish bottle and throw them away. women are shopping. they
are very fashionable. my mother says she wants to go shopping. women
are buying bracelets. i don't like anything cold around my wrist. one is
wearing a weird purple flowery hat. they are not finding what they are
looking for. do they wear make-up or not and do they dance. can i still
dance. i'm a bit shaky on my feet. i pick up a leather wallet that is
kind of a book. it is a sample of a bookmaking class. the cashier says
the class is in las vegas. why am i in nevada? i don't want to be in
nevada. the air is clean. i don't care, i want to go to the beach. i
want to go home. why is it taking so long to go home.
