I was reading John Keats, and trying not to fall into a deeper dream which would entail only sleep.

On ESPN 2 the bisexual pool shooting women were running the colorful balls across table after table. Their beautiful bi-sexual asses were draped all over the creamy felt that must have smelled so powdery and clean, and halfway between teal and ultramarine.

Meanwhile the nastiest pool player was whispering something, over and
over, in my ear:
"It's all ye need to know," this pretty shooter said.
The dream is saying my time was up, but I never want to let it go.
