I often dream about the Dolphin Hotel.
In these dreams, I'm there, implicated in some kind of ongoing circumstance. All indications are that I belong to this dreams continuity.
The Dolphin hotel is distorted, much too narrow. It seems more like a long, covered bridge. A bridge stretching endlessly through time. And there I am, in the middle of it. Someone else is there too, crying.
The hotel envelopes me. I can feel it's pulse, it's heat. In dreams, I'm part of the hotel.
I wake up, but where? I don't just think this, I actually voice the question to myself: 'Where am I?' As if I didn't know: I'm here. In my life. A feature to the world that is my existence. Not that I particualry recall ever having approved these matters, this condition, this state of affairs in which I feature. There might be a woman sleeping next to me. more often, I'm alone. Just me and the expressway that runs right next to my apartment and, beside, a glass (five milimiters of whiskey still in it) and the malicious - no, make that indifferent - dusty morning light. Sometimes it's raining. If it is, I'll just stay in bed. and if there's whiskey still left in the glass, I'll drink it. And I'll look at the raindrops dripping from the eaves, and I'll think about the Dolphin Hotel. Maybe I'll stretch, nice and slow. Enough for me to be sure I'm myself and not part of something else. Yet I'll remeber the feel of the dream. so much that I swear I can reach out and touch it, and the whole of the something that includes me will move. If I strain my ears, I can hear the slow, cautious sequence of the play take place, like droplets in an intricate water puzzle falling, step upon step, one after the other. I listen carefully. That's when I hear someone softly, almost imperceptibly, weeping. A sobbing from somewhere in the darkness. Someone is crying for me.
