Dream: 3 April, 1986

The table is covered with snakes. A boy grabs one and shakes it, almost hitting me. I suddenly realize that the snake is breaking apart. The boy puts the now dead snake in my hand, but I am afraid the snake will come back to life, so I let go of it.
梦一九八六年四月三日

在桌子上,有好多蛇,一个男孩用手把蛇拉起来摇着,差一点碰到我,我明白了,蛇在脱节。他把死后的蛇放在我手上,我怕蛇再活,我松开手。
