A Mump Dream

While napping, I had a cartoonish dream about Elon Stench and the Orange Menace.

Two black cats napping

In the dream, I’m watching a cartoon. The images initially resemble purple and magenta blobs, kind of like balloons if they came in weird shapes. Or like bubbles, or drops of spilled ink.

Zooming in, I see numerous political cartoon-style illustrations of politicians.

The cartoon version of Elon Musk becomes the center of the image… and becomes bigger and bigger. He has a creepy smile. He wears a dark gray suit with maybe a red tie… or a black tie.

He floats downward in front of the purple and magenta bubbles. While floating, he becomes bigger and bigger.

Next he floats so far down he’s near some other politicians to the right of the image. He drifts to the right, closer to the others. He lightly bumps into the cartoon Trump, he… explodes! Next the cartoon Trump explodes, too.

And we all live happily ever after.

Here’s a link to my anti-fascist bibliography:

book Witch’s Familiar & Whimsical Stories is available in trade paperback and e-book. It’s a fantasy novella and short stories. The novella features a sardonic talking cat and a cross-dressing witch.
