On the sidewalk construction, the shadow-man blocks my way, dream by mikele -- Jan. 1, 2012
I am walking down 18th street in San Francisco to go to work. It is a sunny day with a feeling of completeness, peace and freedom. I walk by the private elementary school that is on that street (exists in reality) and it reminds me of childhood and a feeling of freedom I long for. Then I realize the bigger part of the sidewalk is under construction. There is a haze of dust due to the construction, dimming the sunlight, the atmosphere becomes hazy. I can see the fence and a dark construction machine, one where the concrete is mixed. This takes over a large part of the sidewalk and also of the street to the left. On the right side, there is a narrow passage for the pedestrians to go by. I start walking through the passage, but I see a black silhouette of a man, coming by (reminding me of the cartoon character taking me by the hand in the dream: "Powerful cartoon shadow", from October 10 2011). Although he is rather thin, it seems there is not enough room for me to go through.
