Had a dream today
I am sitting with Pintu along with a few others at a tea stall overlooking a field. We are having some hot tea in earthen cups when I see a funny looking creature sliding on its belly and coming towards me in a playful mood. I can’t quite place what kind of animal it is. It looked like a walrus, but not quite one. It cracked me up when I realized that it resembled a bald guy who was sitting at the tea stall with us. This animal was grey in colour with a mass of fat, had tiny black eyes, no ears, a small mouth without any whiskers. At first I got a bit amused as it somehow resembled this bald guy, but as it approached towards me, I moved out of the way.
I look towards the other side and find that there is another creature, this one is much bigger in size, most probably the mother of this small guy. It is getting cuddled up by some bystanders at the tea shop adjacent to us. The creatures behaved rather like dogs or dolphins, playful and at ease…but not so cute to look at.
I notice that Pintu has some live crabs and prawns with him under his seat. Maybe he had brought them to feed those creatures. He takes out one of the prawns and throws it at the small guy who approached us before. He grabs the prawn and gobbles it up happily and then looks back at us for more food.
There are a couple of turtles lazing on the ground near us, someone must have got them there. I see Pintu putting a crab near one of the turtles, and the big crab instantly charges the turtle for a fight. The turtle instantly goes in its shell for protection but the crab gets hold of it and breaks open the shell little by little and eventually cracks open the skull. I see a warm vapour come out of the turtles mouth, it was probably the last moist breath it exhaled into the chilly weather. The warm blood is now flowing out of the dead turtles head and the crab is feasting on it.
On the side I notice some kind of an egg. I am not too sure what egg it is, but it was hatching. It took some time for the shell to crack open giving way to some bluish yolk like thing. I can see hordes of baby spiders crawling out of the egg. I am convinced that that’s how spiders are born. One egg but hundreds of spiders coming out of it.
The scene slowly dissolves and the act is over.
