Such a nightmare

   Such a nightmare it was, I can hardly  begin to recall it.  
   Weird, ghoulish. Smurfs with indescribable grins on their faces.  They were not the usual cute little ones.  They were quite dirty.  They looked as if they were a bunch of losers thrown out of their group. They were circling around me, daring me to find a way to open the locked treasure chest, a sort of vintage piece left on this deserted  island by a Blue Beard look-alike.  
   The were yapping so much and passing a fifth-bottle of rhum around and I could hardly make what the flurry of words was all about.  
   Their leader kept  pointing at the treasure chest  as if inside we would find all a guy needs to recover from his losses.  
   But my hands were tied:  ''you expect too much of me''  I kept saying, repeating, almost crying in trying to get them to understand my plight. Still they would not understand. I was lost.  Totally vanquished.  Would they hang me?  Get me to a ship, make me walk the plank? A deep reach in my soul to try to remain calm. To no avail.  It was then a gorgeous blonde approached me in a very angry manner, so I lost it and gave her a solid cunt-punt, and tried to get away from the angry mob.  
   And even as I woke up in a bed of sweat, still in fear of these smurfs chasing me, half-dazed, I was gently led  to reality be a charming Dream Walker during my  convalescence.....which happened to be in the midst of Halloween at the Evergreen Memorial Hospital.
