Hyssops

 

Everyday on my way home from work, I see these purple-blue flowers growing on the side of the busy highway. And everyday I wish I could just pull over and pick them. So goes the making and inspiration for another very strange vivid dream. I was dreaming for quite a while, the hazy type that are totally meaningless and that you never remember, and then, I was walking along the side of a road or something, and saw the most amazing purple-blue flowers, just like the ones on my daily route to work. They had to be growing a good 3 feet high. I am 99% positive these are, blue/purple giant hyssops - both in my dream and the ones I see everyday.

 

At first, picking them was tough; the stems did not want to break. I looked, and here I was pulling them out by the root, so I thought to myself, heck, I will just take them home and plant some of them and some cut to put in a tall vase. Suddenly, my skin began to sting. I looked down, and hundreds of termites (yes, termites) were stinging and biting me. They were pouring out of the ground, I could see them swarming at the dirty roots of the flowers; winged ones and drones alike. I was simply covered, so I began frantically ripping my clothes off throwing them all over the ground until I stood there naked. I recall my hair was gathered in a ponytail, and I felt the last one sting the back of my head near my ear as I swatted him away. I looked down, and of course my body was covered with stings; my skin left a burning bright reddish-pink color and plastered with tender raised welts. I recall looking at my stomach, seeing very clearly so many bites that not a patch of skin was left unbitten.

 

Slightly embarrassed at being naked, at least I got the termites off. I thought to myself, how odd for termites to attack me this way. Then, I looked up and saw a house in the distance, say about 200 or so feet away. There was a young man and young boy in the driveway standing near a mini-van. The side door of the mini-van was open, as if they had just gotten back from shopping (at least the impression I got was they had just been grocery shopping.) All of the sudden, the man turned around and began to wiggle his naked butt at me.

 

Good lord, my dreams are so weird.
