Once I imagined that all my life was a dream. A dream I was having as a child.

I’ll awake. I’m in a bunkbed. My brother John asleep below me. It’s winter I can see snow in the back yard. I’m nine. It’s January 1960.

I dreamed in fine detail a whole history. A long lifetime in a moment's dream.

I hear my dog “Brownie” padding about below.

My dad getting ready to go to work. School,...I have to go to school. I have the experiences, memories of a lifetime. 60 future years. From that I will make new worlds. ...better worlds.
