from the land of dreams in the misty island. Or, alternatively, from the flat above a shop on the Kentish Town Road, amidst the shouts of the midnight drunks and the police sirens.

She was just there.
She entered the room. It seemed to be my old house in Catia in West Caracas but different; lots of cushions on the floor in the large room, people milling about. I was madly in love with her and spent some time trying to get her attention but she was busy with other people and, I surmised, important stuff to discuss. More important than talking to me. At last she turned to me, smiled and got closer.
And then I woke up with that desperately empty feeling. She was so real and tanglble, so full of an energy that flowed and filled me. But she wasn't anyone I know or have ever known. She didn't exist. I had to get up and go to the loo, navigate the darkness in the room while that vivid dream began to unravel and dissolve.
