Debra Winger With Three Eyes

________________________________________________________________________________________________

In a sarcastic tone, someone

called me "Paul Picasso."

I was flattered.

 

That night,  I dreamt about 

Debra Winger 
with three eyes and a slit
for a second mouth.

Her second nose 

was obviously mine!

I asked her where

she was going.

To see Dr. Paul, she said.

The flattery was compounded.

I am playing a character 

with a therapist named 

Paul Weston.

The flattery was replaced by intrigue.

My character is named Frances Greer.

It's an HBO series called  In Treatment. 

My salary will be used for a U-Haul

and a limousine.

I asked where she was going.

I'm not going anywhere.

The limousine will transport

your fiance and her two cats

from New York to California.

The U-Haul will follow the limo

with all her possessions.

Then the phone rang and it was my fiance.

I told Carol that I had a solution

to our bi-coastal dilemma.

What I told Carol 

may or may not have

been part of the dream.
