Dreams, Kicks &
Bruises
Memorial Day, 2014
Setting: Master Po take 6 different pills
each morning and another 12 each evening.
This apparently have accumulating effect on dreams the past 8
years. At times murderous villains chasing
Master Po in dream causing Mrs. Po to be on high alert while also trying to get
good night’s sleep.
Saturday night Master Po find himself in dream, not
in dire straits fighting for his life. Instead I’m in starting blocks in hurdle
race against other senior citizens in “Young at Heart Games.” While Master Po
get ready for commands from starter, “take your mark…etc.,” I also get ready,
in similar position in bed. In dream I am upright, in reality I lying on left
side facing Mrs. Po. My “get ready” position cause Mrs. Po to awaken just
enough to save her life – she not take medications that Master Po take,
although she soon may feel the need to start.
This good
time in story to point out that in dream Master Po not have knee problems,
heart valve or breathing issues, enlarged prostate gland or any other ailments
for which the meds are necessary. In
fact, Master Po in awesome shape in dream. He capable of winning fight against honorable
David Carradine in kung fu battle.
Race Start: Gun go off and I
sprint to first hurdle. Rememba, legs in fact are in full running motion and
then I thrust out lead leg with robust kick to clear first hurdle. I taking
early lead in dream and feel confident in victory. In reality, Master Po
kicking Mrs. Po repeatedly, and then thrust right leg into her body with
violent intentions. She have full right according to US constitution to
retaliate cause she not know Master Po is running race.
Soooo….she
kick back like Oscar Pistorius running on Energizer Battery. This not new for
Mrs. Po cause she does suffer from “restless leg syndrome” – (ailment caused by
lack of sleep with dreaming violent husband in bed.) And she thrust her own kick to Master Po
abdomen and tender body area. She obviously do this on purpose. I awake in
shock, pleading for forgiveness saying “Sorry, sorry….” Mrs. Po only turn over
and protect herself by exposing her backside to Master Po in case further
attacks are eminent.
Next morning:
As master Po examine bruises next morning while having coffee, Mrs. Po
awaken and ask favorite morning question, “Having bad dreams again last night,
Sweetie?” This not déjà vu in my mind,
as this phrase from Mrs. Po is as common as “good morning, Sweetie.”
One medicine
derived from ginseng, Master Po take, is blood thinner. This has tendency to
make bruising more widespread. Bruise
below is true bruise on Master Po, but not from Mrs. Po’s kicks. This bruise from fall in yellow creek from
previous Master Po mishap. This is Master Po's story on bruise and I am sticking to it. I do not want to give Mrs. Po anymore reason for retaliation kicks. Her legs are energized and restless too.
A memorable
moment from Memorial Day - 2014
