"The Whitehouse Diner" Photo by Aaron Segreaves
I always dream in color but this time there was the smell of
bacon in the air. They say you dream
about what matters to you most. I shared
this with my therapist, and he said this explains a lot! We mostly discussed my forlorn love life, my
ex, and why apple pie is not my friend. You see, one of the last times I saw my
ex was at the diner downtown. He said he
was hungry for more than dating with no strings attached. I was certain he was full of it! I ordered
coffee no cream no sugar, he laughed and said “that figures!”
Sure enough, 20 stale dates and 2 months later, I caught him
with the waitress from the Tangerine Tango.
I know a bad egg when I see one and some rump roasts are always going to
be tough!
Excuse me while I go make a BLT on rye.

Great title for your culinary tale of deceit.
ReplyDeleteLOL thanks Lisa! :-)
DeleteI read somewhere that there is no sense of smell in dreams, but i think there is, it just doesn't happen that often. Still not sure...
ReplyDeleteHe sounds like an ass roast for sure!
I made this all up but I think that I have smelled in dreams but like you said, not often.
Delete"The Smell of Bacon Never Lies" - perfect!
ReplyDeleteLOL Anything with bacon always is.
DeleteSuch an affinity to your thoughts, Carrie! That title says it all :)

DeleteWhen I was writing at 14 my stuff usually was silly and funny. LOL
Carrie, you transported us to another place we rarely go .. into the writer’s dream-talk!! Dreaming in color is great, adding a whiff of fried bacon is a delight!!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Helen! I am delighted you enjoyed it!
DeleteThis was such fun to read Carrie - 'some rump roasts are always going to be tough' - what a line!
ReplyDeleteOh i dream in colour also. ? That is the obes i remember i do wake somtimes feeling i know i must have been dreaming but i cant recall it )And the colours are always more i tense than in reality.
ReplyDeleteHappy Sunday.
Much💜love
What a fun tale! I could smell the bacon, and I think I've met the ex once or twice!
ReplyDeleteStill smiling... the badd egg of the Tangerine Tango....
ReplyDeleteThis might be my favorite title ever. I've never eaten bacon (out of observance of kosher dietary laws, as my blogger name would suggest...), but I once worked at a breakfast place where one of my jobs was making the bacon egg and cheese sandwiches. I've never really felt tempted by the sight of bacon, but man, the smell of bacon was so appetizing!
ReplyDeleteOutstanding poem, Carrie! Now you have me wondering about smells in dreams. Love the rump roast.
