This lucid was extremely short (perhaps 20 seconds), a length that I would normally consider a micro-lucid and not journal here. But it was so vivid and striking that it is really stuck with me. It is one of those dreams where you just remember every detail. Color legend: Non-dream Dream Lucid Lucid #73: On a Dark Rooftop I am pawing at hypnagogic imagery, and I sense that I can reach out with my hand to touch a solid floor. It works, and a dream scene takes shape. It is night and I am crouched on the rooftop of a one-story house on the crest of a hill. I am dressed in head-to-toe in black (yes, I admit, like a ninja ) and I feel silent, coordinated, and infinitely agile. I look all around me. Suburban streets lie in every direction. There is a faint reddish glow on the horizon, and I sense some kind of threat or danger gathering in the distance. In my head, I clearly hear the voice of an old man: "Even in these dark days, my people yet retain a shadow of their former glory." His words fill me with an enormous sense of urgency -- I have work to do. A cold wind picks up. I prepare to leap to an adjacent rooftop, but the dream ends. I work at DEILD for a while, but just cannot get back in.
