I thought I needed to remember this because it was such a strange experience.
I was trying to fall asleep the other night and couldn't because I was thinking too much. But I finally got to the point where I was half conscious and half not. It was very quiet for a while. Around 1 I heard the weirdest noise. I couldn't quite make out what it was, so I sat in bed just trying to put a name to it. I thought it was some sort of bird--screaming bloody murder--but then it could have been a dog, maybe. I still don't know what it was. It got to the point where I decided it was a person screaming in terror. So I get up out of bed and open the window...to see nothing. Then in the corner of my eye I see something moving. From one bush to another in the courtyard below there was some sort of animal scurrying about. Again, it came out and I think it was a fox. I didn't believe it myself, but it looked like a fox. I had never seen a fox before, yet I was positive that is what it was. Anyway, I just thought it was weird how I saw this fox, a supposedly shy animal, in the middle of a courtyard in a very suburban area. And you know, it wasn't only that. I felt kinda helpless not being able to recognize anything--the sound, the animal, its purpose for being there. Kinda puts one in their place, eh? Who wants to argue that we have access to OBJECTIVE reality?

ReplyDeleteI was not scared. I didn't know that foxes were scary? Can they be?
ReplyDeleteThey can be. They have a reputation of attacking vulnerables. Although London foxes are civilized version! Do you see foxes quite often?
ReplyDeleteOnly that one time.
ReplyDeletePerhaps I will see/hear more soon.
Yap maybe! I see foxes all the time, there is a park just behind my flat. I guess they come from there.
