Before work called

The water in the pool was a deep dark blue - the color of Ty-D-Bol. Jim Morrison, the long dead lead singer of The Doors, was standing poolside. He called my name out loud. The song Not to Touch The Earth was playing. He knew I liked that one so he danced a little bit for emphasis. It was as though he was dedicating the song to me. I danced back, to show my appreciation, high up on the slope above the pool. I felt a rush of joy run through me and had to restrain myself from running down and leaping into the strange liquid's container. I realized, when I woke up, that I'd almost forgotten that feeling entirely.
