I found myself standing in the middle
of the woods holding a wolf by a
leash. I wore a red hooded sweatshirt. It started raining and the puddles
of the woods began expanding. I felt hollow and when I looked down at
my
stomach it was a bucket of red meat. I said very quietly, "Wolf, teach
me a
lesson." The wolf licked his face and a terrible
wind came through and
lifted him into the sky. For a moment, he was a balloon at the
end of the
leash I held. Then, I felt the heels of my boots lift
from the mud.
