a dream of mine @ once a loser always a loser

8:40: i am going to the airport to board a flight on a hand pulled rickshaw , i can c the facade of the airport across a distance of 2.5 kms8:42: rushing , gushing thru the open fields8:50: inside the airport in the baggage check counter8:51:onto the boarding pass counter8:52 security check , the metal scanner detects a scissor ( i dunno y i was carrying it though these security fellows are very particular abt sharp objects )
8:55: flight is suppose to leave at 9, i reach the passenger throughway9:00: still in their vans that carry us to the plane , i c the flight take off thru the window of that vannow it is fun
9:01 : i request the on field attendant to call back the flight ( as if i was queen elizabeth , and my father was her husband )
9:03: flight manoeuvres around and lands back to pick me upimagine how big a dumbo i amnow still not content with that9:04 : my insatiable hunger for cigs drives me to ask for a 1 minute extension so that i can have a puff9:05 : request granted time for next take off extended to 9:06i light up a cig , the puff chain beginsguess what happens next...i go on puffing .... smoke rings in the air ... one puff .... one moreits like when u r answering a tough ques u feel like goin till the end , till u get the answeru go on attemptingi am still puffing......
9:05:59 : jus 1 last one i say to myself 9:06 : rush towards the plane to see it soaring in the air , above the runway , away from me , gone missed it again
7:45: hrs : my lady alarm pushes me off my bed , stilll in somnolence i am " ALARMED " - for 3 reasons - the alarm , the dream , to see the real world not going anywhr.
moral of the dream :
" TO save a soul , sometimes a limb has to be amputated"( as lincoln said in the distant past and as musharraf re-quoted him when he declared the extra-constitutional emergency ) andthe 2nd moral" a pair of scissors can shear u off a lot of money "
if i wud have saved the 3 mts there in the security check i wud have caught the flight in the 1st place and the question of the 2nd place would not have come i analysed itit was such a true dreami am always late , i smoke tilll the butt , i am carelessu knw it shows the real thing.
and i had missd a flight just some days backslept off thinkin i had loads of time and jus got off 2 hrs before the flightand obviously nno human is ever satiable , not me alone
and the best thing is during a security check they had actually taken off a pair of scissorshow true can a dream bethan thathow close can it be to reality
