Manute Bol.[i]

☼ ○ ▬

At a big swimming pool facility. Sort of floating around the room in mid-air trying to avoid the grasp of a hostile apparition. Up near the ledge of a window is a miniature city. Once you enter you shrink to their size. I go inside for safety. It's a whole new world now. For some reason I have an ankle bracelet on, some kind of locator and a bracelet on my wrist. I try to keep it hidden behind my socks and sleeves cause if I'm found they could throw me out. Running around neighborhood to neighborhood late at night. I develop an awkward relationship with the ringleader of a gang that seeks people like me out. It's hard to tell if he knows who I am and is just playing along to catch me at the right moment. A different gang discovers my existence. I try to seek help from my ringleader friend. He's playing some arcade game when I ask.

Me: "Hey. I really need your help. They're coming to get me!"

Later on, I find myself hiding atop a building. The gang is kicking and chopping at the building and make it tilt over. As it's falling I toss my locator bracelets into the woods nearby. As soon as I hit the ground it's game over. I wake up.

Getting groceries at Trader Joe's – getting new socks and gym shorts at Target.


In my bedroom I discover an ant trail leading from the electrical socket near my window onto my desk and around my golden pothos plant. Every year I battle these buggers in different parts of the house. All it takes is caulking the cracks around the socket and wiping down the desk.


Electric Light Orchestra practice at the music space.


Grapes.
