Rat Man #dreamdiary 57
My latest job is a rat-catcher and
my first venue is at my former employer’s warehouse. My old colleagues are
gathered all around me who have all suddenly become experts in telling me how
to do my current job. As I begin laying the traps I suddenly spot the rat
gnawing through a box containing a wooden wardrobe. It’s as big as an adult
human foot, and it’s all grey and woollen. I give chase and it weaves in and out
of the stockroom shelving and jumps over people’s feet to the tune of Benny
Hill while my former colleagues stand there bemused. I eventually procure a
child’s fishing net and manage to trap it in the corridor. I now have two
options. I can slide it up into a bag using a magazine as the sixth wall. Or I can
take out my truncheon and splat it. I choose the latter and the room goes
silent.
