Anxiety Dreams

An average person would think, Goddess damn it, that anxiety dreams would never plague an Ovate of Crumby's seniority and high status.  Also, many might assume that an important Druid like Crumby would dream about important future events or suchlike.  But no.  Crumby, tormented lifelong by the beautiful yet merciless WG, needs to dream silly anxiety dreams that wake him up at 5 am.  Where's the fairness in that?

So Crumby is dreaming that he is fixing to go on a bird trip with a multitude of other old geezers.  But first, we all need to take a multiple choice test.  Jeez Louise!  Really!

The first question on Crumby's test reads,  Why mya if schirz?  No, no, no.  But instead of skipping that dumbass question and going on to the others, Crumby, in his dream state fixates on, Why mya if schirz?  Pretty soon all the other old geezers finish their tests.  They are all going outside, fixing to depart on an interesting bird tour.  Yet Crumby has not answered the first question.  Anon, an old crone or hagling arrives at Crumby's side.  Have you finished Crumby?  We are fixing to depart.  She asks.

No.  I need a little more time.

You are out of time.  We have to go.

Just let me finish. Please.  I shall employ the Indian or Choctaw technique and quickly draw patterns on the test paper, making sure that each row of circles after each question has at least one or two answers.

But it is too late.  Crumby finds himself furiously filling in all the circles on every question.  Even, Why mya if schirz? has five affirmatives.  Mercy!  Does this mean I don't get to go on the bird tour?
