Writing from dreams is like entering a dark forest. At first, we barely pay attention to dreams, except perhaps for the sudden flash of nightmare that shakes us in the night.
Then, writing in a journal to remember them, the contours of the forest begin to appear: and we start to name the recurring differences between fern and elm, robin and hawk. We discover we have many wild voices.
