when i was chatting yesterday, i forgot to tell you about my dream

what i mostly remember
though i'm sure there was more
is driving

the roads were all
hmmm
not cobblestone
because cobblestone is an actual street material
albeit an old fashioned one
no this was paving stone
the kind they had at university
small river stones
are set
into
epoxy
fancy sidewalks basically
i was driving on fancy sidewalks
through residential areas
townhouses mostly
multi story
quite nice
and
it was night
my vision
somewhat impaired

i kept driving along these curvilinear
walkways
and
i kept ending up
on the roof
nearly driving off the edge
circling back
going
essentially
in figure eights

maybe i'm telling myself something there
maybe not
but
it was
a little scary

i went into one of the townhouses
told the people
i think
what it was i was trying to find
they were friendly
helpful
and
i have to admit
i did just a little coveting of their place
