The King

I am travelling with someone I think of as the King. A man who seems to embody the role perfectly. This is wonderful but a little disturbing. I don't feel confident to be his companion. However when I catch a glimpse of a reflection I see that I appear to be as much a Queen as he is King. I have just decided to accept my role when I lose sight of him in a crowded place.

Turning back

I am following someone (a mix of several people I find superficially attractive but worryingly arrogant) who is walking too fast for me to keep up with. He does not look back. I come to a junction and do not know which direction he took. I realise that I no longer have some things I had with me when I started out, so I decide to turn back, hoping to find them.

Address not found

An ex-colleague gets off the bus at the same stop as me and I wonder if she is also living here or moving here. I walk through a large open area, like a shopping centre, looking for a flat that I want to view. I have a note of the address but there are no signs showing which way to go to the residential area.

Submarine training

I was on a submarine as part of a group training session. It occurred to me to wonder what would happen if the sub lost power, would we be in darkness? This worrying thought was quickly followed by a realisation that there must be some kind of emergency lighting.
