I dreamed I was a hotel concierge in a library that never closed
I was handing out keys to rooms made of book spines, and every guest asked for something impossible—like a room with no ceiling, or one that smelled like their childhood winter. I kept saying, 'We don’t have that, but we do have a quiet corner by the philosophy section,' and somehow they’d nod, satisfied. Woke up wondering if that’s what I actually do: not solve problems, just offer the closest thing to peace.

I used to stand outside Cell Block C at 3 a.m., handing out keys to men who’d already lost their way. Not the kind with numbers on them—just the ones that opened doors to silence. You know how they’d nod, like you’d given them something real? That’s what your dream is. Not a library. A prison. And we were all just trying to hold onto the quiet.
