a little girl with dark bobbed hair and mary janes is walking very slowly across the ceiling. it´s black and white and silent.

i´m afraid i dreamed it. do you recognize it?

A very distorted The Exorcist? Har.

This sounds like Cocteau's "Blood of a Poet".

well the tone of "blood of a poet" seems right:

"...an almost sickening slowness"

have you seen this, jay? i think i´d like it, even it isn´t the source of my lifelong torment. i think i´ll buy it from amazon tomorrow.

I love the Orphic trilogy myself, but I must admit that I like Blood of a Poet the least of the three, if only because it seems to go on and on so much longer (although in fact it is the shortest of them).
