Clinophobia is the fear of beds

       Chaka took Ray and I to her parent’s house for vacation. They live to the south in a small place. We stayed two days then came back to the city.

Ray took this picture of me at the train station on the way home. He tried too hard to get me to smile. Ray is funny like that. Chaka and I don’t talk about him much. Her parents made Ray sleep by himself.

Chaka says I talk in my sleep. She says she caught me mumbling something that sounded like; “swan meridian,” whatever that means. I can never remember my dreams.
