What you sent me this fortnight

What you sent

A fortnight of replies, one line each, with the names taken off.

I HAD THIS ONE TOO

TODAY’S SYMBOL

FRIDAY, 7 AUGUST

Dear friend,

The best thing anybody sent me this fortnight was shorter than this sentence, and I have not stopped thinking about it.

So today is yours rather than mine, and I am reading them at the kitchen table with the radio off.

These came in as replies, one line each, and I have taken the names off, though I am not sure everybody wanted me to.

Nothing has been tidied up, which is why some do not quite finish.

What you sent

“I dreamed the house had one more room and I woke up furious that it did not.”

“My father, in the doorway, not saying anything. He has been gone a while. It was a good night.”

“Lost my keys again. Found them in the dream, in the fridge, and laughed hard enough to wake myself up.”

“I could not move and I did not panic this time, because you said it ends.”

✦ CARRY THESE WITH YOU TODAY

It ends, and I can wait it out.

I already have the key to this.

Somebody else had this one too.

Tap the one you need

✦ WRITE BACK

One line is enough, and the ones that do not finish are the ones I keep.

TELL ME WHICH ONE

So here is the only question this week: what did you nearly write to me and then delete?

Sleep well,

Dream Signs

P.S. One reply came in the middle of the night and said only that she was going back to sleep, which is the best outcome this letter has had. If you wrote at that hour, tell me what woke you. She sent nothing after that.

Dream it. Sign it. Live it.
