I've read Kerouac's Book of Dreams and Burroughs has one called My Education: A Book of Dreams from 1995.

I go into a shop, discover that the the woman serving behind the counter is my mother. Except that the shop is bare, the counter long and curving away into the distance and there seems nothing to sell. I go up to my mother and haul myself up on my elbows to look over the counter. My mother is standing knee deep in wriggling crocodiles.Dave Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08430484174826768488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5401124973760279564.post-3844010099910765922013-08-07T18:17:09.368-04:002013-08-07T18:17:09.368-04:00Patti, When I was younger I had the wandering thro...Patti, When I was younger I had the wandering through desolate locations.David Cranmerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04749857752139212888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5401124973760279564.post-44322171710516961942013-08-07T10:17:24.193-04:002013-08-07T10:17:24.193-04:00Phil has great and vivid dreams.
