CORNELIUS X’S BOOK OF BAD DREAMS: 13

by Tom Ball

AWAKE AND FREE AGAIN

Finally after 3 months of bad dreams, I was free again.  And had happy, nice dreams.

Then I tried another job as brain chef.  Tried to guess what food machine foods people would like.  I would be given their portfolio and then ordered dishes. I had a lot of return customers.  But after a few months I tired of this job and decided to be unemployed for a while. And eventually I sold my nightmares for a lot of money (dreams were always recorded).  People were bored of nice dreams all the time… It was all new fashion.

And a quirk of this settlement I was in was you must never say the same thing twice.  If you had nothing new to say then you would remain silent.  It was a silent, “peaceful world.” After what I had been through I was only too happy to remain silent.
