DREAM: In a living abode of mine, similar to my house but more spacious and taller. There’s a twin size mattress with a light blue floral design set flat on the floor near the wall. For some reason we’ve been keeping dry food products on top of it, like an open face pantry or something. Most of the food is old. I take the initiative and start cleaning it up. I notice a punctured hole in the mattress where maggots have crawled into and made a home of. Looking inside, I can see they’ve pretty much infested the whole interior. There’s a few roaches nearby as well. This is just nasty. I’m spraying something and wiping down the surface. The maggots and bugs don’t seem to like it. More and more of them pop out of their respective holes. I leave the scene and walk to where my new neighbors are—still in the house but I guess this is their side of the dwelling place. They opened up the dresser drawers only to discover unusually large maggots inhabiting inside, packed like sardines. They look more like white slugs, still slimy, and with sleek gill-like skin. In my mind I’m thinking it would be dangerous to even touch one. Either way, I’m holding one or two in my hands. They feel warm and squirmy—slipping easily out of my grip.
