Dreams last night

--Apartment complex. I'm in my room when my dog is stolen by police-nurses. It is brought back without eyes. Same with my cat, they are whaling when a nextdoor neighbor informs me the building is changing. Bars start raising over my windows; the faux wood paneling is replaced by raised columns of red brick. I run out just before the transformation is complete and the buildings doors are shut a constricting wall of these bricks. From the outside it looks like a monstrous flower closing its petals.

--Machine gangster wife with husband in rectangular spa pool. Woman is a famous actress from Shikoku. Parts of her body are completely absent--legs, one arm, side of face--and are replaced with cybernetic auxiliaries. He sits tatted up on the other side of the pool. She sits up, flashing back to her beauty without these strange accouterments. Walking up to him she glares down he glares back, and his face silently plunges into the azure clear spa water as her machine arm drowns him.

--My son and I are at a hong-kong estuary park, where a column of water, 5 foot deep and light clear blue provides fun like a gigantic wave-pool. No visible sea life, but one wonders if there is some in there, hidden. Suddenly a tidal wave smashes through with a rumbling noise. We hide behind a coral mound as the wave crashes around us and brings with it a heavy tourist bar-boat, which tumbles over with all its panicked charge.

-- A shikoku estuary populated on each side by two rival gangs--one ethnically Japanese, the other Korean. The leader of the Japanese gang is animated and angrily demands satisfaction. The Korean succinctly apologizes and hands over a novelty set of Catholic prayer beads from off his own neck with a large ivory crucifix hanging from the bottom. The Japanese leader puts them around his neck--a Korean gang-member on the concrete staircase leading down to the estuary waters triggers the crucifix and it explodes blowing out the back of the Japanese gang-leader with a terrific thud.
