The Everly Brothers have been on repeat in my mind, and on my laptop, for the last several minutes. I keep having certain dreams that make wonder whether they are merely screams from my subconscious, desires I dare not echo in public, or occurances waiting to happen. I might just have a wild imagination, with a strong emphasis on the "wild", but what is it about dreams? Why do some dreams just stick to one's thoughts while others are forgotten soon after waking up? Why are some dreams only dreamt once, some twice, some on continual repeat, some on shuffle mode? Why are some in color or black and white? What about point of view, seeing through the eyes of oneself or as someone else or another party in no way involved with the current events? How can some dreams appear so transparent and untouchable as if it were only a movie, and other dreams so vivid and realistic from the smell of the atmosphere to the density of the surrounding matter to the texture of a person's skin?
I have come to the conclusion that not only should I start deciphering these bizarre recurring images that visually stimulate my dreams, I should also write what I dream about as soon as I wake up.
What also amuses me relating to this is that the remake of A Nightmare On Elm Street is opening next week. I, for one, will not be watching, but the trailer for the original film looks a lot scarier than the plethura of trailers swamping television commercials and Youtube for this somewhat anticipated and heavily fan debated remake. Perhaps it's partially due to the empathy that the viewer may have on Freddy Kreuger after watching the first 45 seconds of the trailer? Oh well, that's Hollywood.
