I am in an overgrown and fenced in backyard of a much older house.
It is cloudy out.
Mateo finds a tennis ball and I throw it for him. he runs after it, but then steps into the pit around the edge of a giant piece of plywood covering a huge rectangular hole in the backyard!
he's yelping and as i run to go help him, he gets unstuck and runs off.
My family wants to go down into this pit, which is a rectangular below ground room with carpet and a rocking chair. It's quite large and very dark.
it is a crypt for my grandma who is in the walk in closet in the corner.
this room use to be part of a small guest house in the backyard that was changed into a crypt for her.
my mommy needs something from her grave and her and my daddy go to the closet and open it.
it smells moldy.
i am scared and i wont go over and look, but i know she is laid out on a large stone slab, covered and with leaves and other things all around the floor.
me and my brother and sister are very young now (i think i am about 6 or so) , and we're on the carpet playing in the far corner waiting for my parents.
there is a small hall and another room, but we stay put because it is very dark, must and scary.
finally my mommy finds what she is looking for!
suddenly my parents are gone and it's just me and my brother. Paul, my tattoo artist comes down and tells us he needs to hide.
we are still very young but i understand that winter is coming and he needs to hide from some bad people trying to find him.
he goes and hides in the closet and i find a tupperware of rice and some chicken.
we also have a huge box of cookies and pastries, so me and my brother take a whole bunch and put it into a tupperware for him so he wont starve this winter.
when i go over to the closet to give it to him, i find he is asleep and snoring very loudly.
i work up the courage to open the closet door a little bit and put it into the front area because i don't want to go in.
me and my brother go back up the house and my grandma is there waiting for us. she is much younger and asks how we liked the cookies.
my brother is very young and i am worried he will tell on us.

Mystics have always traditionally considered the feminine aspect of
the universe as a chest, a house or a wall, as well as an enclosed garden. Another
symbolic association is that which equates the house (and the above, related
forms) with the repository of all wisdom, that is, tradition itself (4). In architectural symbolism, on the other hand, the house carries not only an overall symbolism but also particular associations attached to each of its component parts.
Nevertheless, the house as a home arouses strong, spontaneous associations with
the human body and human thought (or life, in other words), as has been confirmed empirically by psychoanalysts. Ania Teillard explains this by pointing
out that, in dreams, we employ the image of the house as a representation of the
different layers of the psyche. The outside of the house signifies the outward
appearance of Man: his personality or his mask. The various floors are related to
the vertical and spatial symbols. The roof and upper floor correspond to the head
and the mind, as well as to the conscious exercise of self-control. Similarly, the
basement corresponds to the unconscious and the instincts (just as sewers do, in
symbols pertaining to the city). The kitchen, since this is where foodstuff is
transformed, sometimes signifies the place or the moment of psychic transmutation in the alchemical sense. The intercommunicating rooms speak for themselves. The stairs are the link between the various planes of the psyche, but their
particular significance depends upon whether they are seen as ascending or descending. Finally, there is, as we have said, the association of the house with the
human body, especially regarding its openings, as was well understood by
Artemidorus Daldianus (56).
