Challenge
Imagine yourself as the Sandman. If you could see into someone else's dream, what would you see?
The Sandman legend was been around for generations. Often the giver of dreams and can sometimes view dreams. For this challenge, imagine you are this mythical being and pick someone you know or some famous person (doesn't matter if they are alive or not). You are not giving a dream this time. You are watching one develop. Describe what you see.

Like Grains of Sand
Sleep, children, sleep. They do, but some of their dreams trail behind me like wisps of choking gas. There’s Bennie who sees the monsters hiding underneath his bed and wakes up in a cold sweat every day. There’s Casey whose visions are overlaid with the sound of her parents’ arguments in the next room. And there’s Annie, whose mother died last year and whose father enters her room and startles her awake with promises of all the fun they’ll have together. For these, bedtime is a horror. Sometimes I really hate my job.
