a dream that i was suddenly homeless
i wandered down yonge street in the cold and passed a group of people who appeared to have come from a shelter. they had cups of soup.. bundles of clothing. i thought to myself that i will need this soon, although i wasn't yet hungry.. and i couldn't bring myself to ask... to accept the situation
i was on a bike, riding toward the guardrail, thinking how flimsy it was, and full of holes, and covered in snow... how anyone could just fall right off the overpass if they weren't careful
i lost control and understood.. acknowledged that there was nothing i could do...
