Four Dreams About Animals - Yan-Bing Wu
1. These two cats have been hiding under my mattress for some time.
One black and one gray, now lounging at my pillow, waiting for the sun to cover their
bodies.
I wonder how long they would have stayed there if I hadn’t found them while
changing the bed sheets.
“ I’m sorry I always get the toilet dirty when I go to the bathroom.”
I thought as I stood in the hallway, at the end of which there was a balcony and three
rooms, through which figures dressed in brown weaved.
All the cats died and were placed in two transparent plastic boxes, which I kept filling
with water to see if they were really not breathing. Water slowly over their bodies, a
kitten suddenly began to breathe, his paws grabbed my hand, I picked him up and
held him in my arms.
