Dream: Piglet

A carp twice the size of a man swims lazily in the calm waters of a canal, over which is the bridge I sit on. The leviathan barely emerges from the water surface, opens and closes its cavernous mouth as if gasping, then swims away.

A piglet clambers up from the water onto the bridge, in front of me. It is covered with cuts and bruises, its snout hanging by just a sliver from its face. It crawls towards me and I land a kick right into its snout. I feel satisfied with the blow. The snout still hangs off the face. I plant my foot onto the same spot again, but it does not stop the piglet from its slow advance. The creature begins to sing, 'spare me, spare me...'

I begin to feel excited. And then I wake up.
