These bodies are our houses. We live in them as temporary tenants for a few years, for this short lifetime. We inhabit physical structures which mimic our physical form: windows to see, temperature controls, waste disposal systems. We gather these houses in towns and cities. By day we live in these cities as if they were permanent, relatively unchanging, while at night we inhabit the continuous flux of the dream world without questioning its fluidity.

But in fact both are dream worlds, both equally fluid: we might wake up at any time from one and find ourselves in the other.
