peter pfeiffer, debbie moses, and the girl with the silver nose

this is a dream i had last night

i was back in college
again


i was in a german class
debbie moses was there
and she was pissed off at me
i couldn't figure out why

and why was she in a german class anyway
debbie took spanish
but
maybe
it's because i used her name

i was sitting next to my friend
and
i was thinking
how beautiful she was
her nose
was a bright shiny silver
the skin
joining the metal to the rest of her face
was black
and textured
the metal nostrils
slits rather than curving outward

peter pfeiffer was
as attractive as ever
and he was talking to my friend
leaning in
speaking german

i tried to listen

he got irritated

i tried to read his lips

he got irritated

there was more
i don't remember

but
i wonder
what are the salient
factors
