home sale dream

in her pastel living room, accented with fur
pick up any ornament,
squirrel, skunk or baby bear
and it is an animal, sitting still in its skin

stripes, tails, ears
among the houseplants, performing as décor
she is tired of them now

and no human heads on the wall, I suppose. Their kind see no connection. She is probably outraged at the price of her t-bone steaks and wild salmon.

What a minute! Are you talking about real stuffed animals or beanie babies? I may have misunderstood this one.

crazy dream! The animals were real (young) animals. Apparently she had experts came by every day to feed them (it was a very upscale house).

Nevertheless, I enjoyed your spirited comment :-)
