Our New Home
Inside the Sphere
A handwritten version of this dream was first published in the first issue of The Handwritten Newsletter.
When I realize this is our new home, I ask the man if we came here on a ship.
“Of course we did,” he grunts and wants no more discussion.
A boy appears.
A little boy, who only a moment ago was a toddler inside.
A girl is with us. She is his friend. When we see the boy again, he has turned into a youth.
All this happens in a short span of time.
We have to continue onward but the young man remains here outside the sphere.
Some time passes.
I am outside.
When I look to the left I notice a small grove of trees.
Right above them I see the message in the clouds.
YES YES HER!
The boy who is a man wants to be with the girl who is a woman.
Then, after this has come to pass, I look up at the sky and I see it.
I see our world.
We are in the center of this globe-verse.
Our planet is inside a sphere and there are more continents on the inside surface of the sphere.
What is outside? Is that where he is?

I think you captured the shifting strangeness and ambiguity of the dreamland very well here, Minna.
