Dreams

The purpose of dreams is to fill in for the Tour de France wins you deserve
but clearly will never win -- because of politics.

Conversely, the purpose of nightmares is to give back the Tour de France
wins you DID win (because of religion and culture), but clearly DIDN'T
deserve.

Of course, by default, the purpose of so-called "waking reality" is to be
the theater in which, boringly, you win all the Tour de France wins you DO
deserve -- but (and this is why they call it "reality") you only deserve
them because everybody else on earth deserves them so ****ing much less than
you.
