Fly, Dancer!
Dreamed 1993/4/2, digitally drawn 1994, by Chris Wayan.
I asked my dreams "I love dance. So why am I skipping so many classes?"
I dreamed my ballet classmates were learning leaps. Except me! I wanted to learn to FLY.
So I walked out alone under the sky, where no one could tell me it couldn't be done.
I visualized levitating... and fell.
I spread my arms as wings and beat them... and fell.
But both together, visualizing and flapping, mind and body... plus loneliness...
I rose through the blue misty evening, and never looked back.
A NOTE MONTHS LATER
This dream is recurrent now. I keep trying to learn how to soar in social situations by watching others, but somehow I never do. I try harder and harder... and then I have some version of this dream again, saying I learn to fly best alone... out from under their low ceilings.
