EXTRACT: I am a blind tuber full of sleep full of mist and dreams. Buried in the womb of the earth, waiting for the spring, waiting to flower, waiting for the season of my dreams to blossom. But then I-don’t-know-what begins corroding me. It begins eating away at the border of my perfect sleep. And finally it’s inside. Dreams of you. You come to me in these dreams never more complete.
