two dreams and a story

Once I had a dream three hummingbirds got into my apartment
Through an open window and I couldn’t get them out
I awoke in terror as one flew into my neck

Once I had a dream that there was a curse in the doorway
If my body wasn’t symmetrical or entered at the wrong time
Something terrible would happen

Once I got stung on the neck by a yellow jacket waiting in line to buy a cup of coffee
I felt something crawling and tried to brush it off
Its stinger pumped poison into my blood as I walked to class
