THE RAINBOW SLEEPER

A sculpture of a dream of a sculpture (dreamed 2000/9/20). Low-fired ceramic, 16"x16"x5", by Chris Wayan

I dreamed I was pushing a shopping cart around Rainbow Grocery, the biggest food co-op in San Francisco.

Then a reef loomed, in the shopper sea. Traffic parted around a huge sculpture of a sleeping woman, rising out of the floor as if the cement slab were shallow water.

She was glazed in pale rainbow colors. Separate little islets of her emerged where an ankle or knee rose above the waterline.

While I was gawking, a cat came up and sniffed her; then a teenager sat down casually on her hip, using her as a bench.

I wouldn't do that. What if she wakes?
