Snail's Dream

Had I followed my intention you would now read a short story, afterwards watch a short film and then ...
Anticipating the then, I decided to not manipulate your thoughts and feelings with my writing, but leave you alone with the film. Voilà.

 

The Snail's Dream*

A snail, who had a way, it seems,
Of dreaming very curious dreams,
Once dreamed he was – you'll never guess! –
The Lightning Limited Express!

* from The Bashful Earthquake & Other Fables and Verses
by Oliver Herford [1863-1935]; New York: Charles Scribner's Sons 1898

Had I followed my intention you would now read a short story, afterwards watch a short film and then ...

Anticipating the then :) I decided to not manipulate your thoughts and feelings with my writing, but leave you alone with the film.

Voilà.
