,,=:=£#### ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### IN THIS DREAM I WAS A GIRL OF MAYBE ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### SIXTEEN YEARS, TOGETHER WITH MY DAD IN ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### A HUGE BATH HOUSE / SPA / HOTEL / ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### SHOPPING CENTRE. DAD WAS CONSTATLY ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### POINTING OUT HOT GIRLS TO ME. "YOU SEE ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### THAT BLACK-HAIRED THING DISSAPEARING ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### BEHIND THE CLOTHES RACK? OOF!" HE'D ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### SAY. HE WAS ALWAYS VERY CREEPY ABOUT ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### THIS, GOING FOR GIRLS MY AGE. ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### THIS NIGHT HE HAD JUST TRIED TO WOO A ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### GIRL HE CALLED A "MOUSE" BY BUYING HER ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### SHOES, BUT SHE HAD ACCEPTED THEM ONLY ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### TO RUN AWAY IMMEDIATELY AFTERWARD. DAD ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### WAS A BIT BUMMED BUT DROPPED IT ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### QUICKLY. I SAID GOODNIGHT TO HIM AND ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### WENT LOOKING FOR THE MOUSE. ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### THE BUILDING WAS ENORMOUS AND MAZELIKE. ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### WALLS, FLOORS AND PILLARS WERE SET IN ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### GREEN MARBLE. THROUGHOUT THE HOUSE RAN ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### A MAIN BOULEVARD, WIDE AS A STREET, ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### FRAMED WITH CLAY VASES DARK AS OBSIDIAN ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### AND TALLER THAN A PERSON. IN EACH VASE ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### WAS PLACED UPRIGHT A LEAF FROM A PALM ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### TREE OR GIANT FERN. THE BOULEVARD WAS ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### DIMLY LIT, WHICH ALLOWED THE POOLS THAT ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### WERE GENEROUSLY SPRINKLED THROUGHOUT ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### EACH FLOOR WOULD REFLECT SUGGESTIVE ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### PATTERNS ON THE MARBLE. ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### : : : : ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### FOLLOWING THE BOULEVARD, TWO FLOORS UP ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### I FOUND HER CRYING BEHIND TWO FERN ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### VASES. SHE WAS BEAUTIFUL, AND AS I ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### APPROACHED, SHE LOOKED UP AND SNIVELED. ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### IN THE NEAREST VASE SHE HAD STUFFED ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### BOTH THE SHOES. ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### I TOLD HER TO FOLLOW, BUT SHE DIDN'T ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### MOVE OR SPEAK. SO INSTEAD I SAID TO ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### STAY THERE, AND RAN TO GET HER A BETTER ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### PAIR OF SHOES THAT SHE WOULD ACTUALLY ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### LIKE. WHEN I RETURNED, HAVING SPENT ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### MORE THAN I COULD REALLY AFFORD, SHE ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### WAS VISIBLY IMPRESSED. I TRIED TO SOUND ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### COOL, SAYING SOMETHING LIKE "WHAT DO ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### YOU THINK, JUST BECAUSE A GIRL HAS A ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### FREAKY DAD, SHE DOESN'T HAVE TASTE?" ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### BUT MOUSE GIRL JUST LAUGHED AT ME. ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### SHE THEN TOOK ME BY THE HAND AND LED ME ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### OUT A SIDE ROUTE TO A CLOSED-OFF ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### ROOFTOP WALKING GARDEN, FULL OF JUNIPER ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### AND THUJA. IT WAS A LATE EVENING, AND ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### THE STARS WERE GLITTERING. BEING ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### CLOSED, THE GARDEN HAD ITS LIGHT TURNED ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### OFF, BUT WE COULD STILL SEE OUR WAY ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### AROUND BY THE LIGHT SHINING DOWN FROM ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### THE WINDOWS OF THE HIGHER FLOORS. ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### SHE LAY DOWN IN A PATCH OF GRASS. I SAT ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### DOWN ON MY KNEES, AND THEN CRAWLED ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### CLOSER. SHE LAUGHED AT ME AGAIN, AND ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### SAID - ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### : : : : ####£=:=,,
,,,=:=£### ###£=:=,,,
,,=:=£#### (HERE I AM AWAKENED BY THE MORNING CREW) ####£=:=,,
