The Referee and the Cheater

My dream last night was a lot more complicated than usual.

It started with Callum. I saw, through the mirror, life as Callum in the 1950s. He walked through the front door of a casino and was greeted by people saying "Welcome to the Referee!" At least, that's what it sounded like.

Callum started blowing all his money on stupid bullshit, throwing all his money away on slots and betting. Every now and then, he'd go to the bathroom and bust out the dope. And he kept chanting "Shine, lake of fire. Lines, take me higher. My mind drips desire, confined and overtired."

Things, after a while, started to get pretty trippy. It was like he got superhuman strength, he started casting fire on everything in sight, and just.. yeah, it was your typical dream-like fare. Or maybe that was just the drugs. Callum was clearly fuckin' mental. He had to be drowning out his sorrows or something, surely. I can empathize. He looked like he was gonna lose his fuckin' mind when he looked into that mirror in the bathroom.

After a while, things changed to some other man. It was another voice pulling out a cigarette and saying, "I remember the first time she came to me. She poured out her soul all night and cried. I remember, I was told there's a new love that's born for each one that had died." Turns out this douchebag was fuckin' sleeping with Lisa while Callum was away at the Referee. I don't know who this guy was, but I know my mind placed him as my psychology friend 'cause it didn't have anyone else to put it to.

The dream continued, and I was presented with two mirrors. One of them showed me, through Callum's eyes, himself pouring his sorrows into gambling. The other showed me the intense fuckin' cheating of that douchebag. I can still hear Lisa's moaning, I guess you could say my dream left that much of an impression on me or something.

By the time I woke up, I told myself I was definitely putting all I could into figuring this shit out. If my dream was to be believed, I may have found out why Callum killed himself and Lisa. But I need to find out more about the other man.
