Last night, restless, in and out of sleep, the same dream continuing of Vampyres, falling back into it after every waking. I have never been so lucky with a pleasant sex dream...
That I'm charged with protecting a lithe, attractive older blonde (40's ish?) from a Vampyre...it's hunting us, her, I know her, she's a close personal friend (that I've never met in real life, don't know, but in the dream)...a post-apocalyptic landscape, this Vampyre wants her to bear his child, continue the race...
We're hiding and tattooing crosses on one another with oblique lines through them, Byzantine, yet still he hunts us and his numbers are growing...
...a tower of earth, an excavator falling against it, nudging it, I'm on it, friend operating it, I'm telling her to be careful not to knock it over, the holes on either side drop into oblivions...
...or in a room, doors all sealed against the threat outside, only now, there's not one Vampyre, they are legion...
(wake, rinse, repeat)
Now, looking at a museum of vampyres, all of whom are sealed in dioramas visible only through little portholes and periscopes, look into one and you see the skeleton of a fetus, a beaver, any manner of creature, when you look through the next porthole it has changed it's aspect, now it's teeth have grown into golden fangs and it's staring at you with luminous eyes...
And we're trying to escape but their numbers are growing and I can see no end to this...
(disconcerting, puzzling, although I have some ideas...)
