We all dream. We go to bed, we go to sleep and we dream.
Sometimes, probably most of the time we do not remember our dreams, but when we do they can be odd.
As I say we don’t always remember our dreams, but when we do we sometimes wonder what they are all about. This was the case of a dream I had a few nights ago.
My dream begins with me walking up an elegant staircase, with a think carpet under foot. I know it is thick because I am barefoot. I am also wearing a nightshirt and a nightcap in the style of Ebenezer Scrooge in the Charles Dickens story, A Christmas Carol. Do not ask me why. I have absolutely no idea.
I walk up the stairs, past the golden handrails and reach the landing. From there I walk towards a lift (elevator) and press the one massive button on the wall. The doors open, and I walk inside to see the walls and the ceiling covered in mirrors.
You may be pleased to know that the floor has a carpet; at least my dignity is safe.
Another feature of the lift (elevator) is the other occupant. It is Adele. Yes. The singer famed for her fantastic voice and albums 19 and 21 and more recently as the singer of the James Bond theme Skyfall.
I then press another massive button inside the lift (elevator) and we move up to the next floor. As we reach it the doors open and... and... we see a troupe of mime artists. Actually, this seems to be the most disturbing part of the entire thing. Mime artists like clowns are the spawn of evil.
As the troupe of mime artists begin their ‘act’ I see they are dressed as characters from Geoffrey Chaucer’s “The Canterbury Tales”. This is strange. Why is it strange? Because I have never read, this particular work and know nothing about it. So how do I know what they are?
As three of the troupe move forward, they move into the lift (elevator) the doors close. Both Adele and I are now “surrounded”, courtesy of the mirrored walls, by multiple mime artists dressed as characters from Geoffrey Chaucer’s “The Canterbury Tale”.
Now, can anyone tell me what that is all about?
