In a dream, I found myself in an Escher style house, chasing a very disorienting sneaker that appeared and disappeared, floating in front of me and never let itself be caught.
Various people and figures crowded the house and the up and down stairs, but they faded in time. Exiting the house, I entered in free fall into the gaping mouth of a frightening fish that emitted a metallic gasp. It was waiting for me, to confront me with some inner monster.
Continuing my journey, I found myself in a meadow, in front of a bare, silvery grey tree, on whose branches sat lions, panthers, possibly tigers, and black crows.
The powerful and menacing animals put a great fear in me, but they did not come down from the tree and did nothing to me.
