MY BAD DREAM OF AN ESSAY

Remember that time you ate that spicy tacos just before you went to bed on the night before the big concert?  Oh, that weird dream you had about the 2016 presidential election.  When you woke up you couldn't quite remember the idiotic details, but after reading "On Self-Reliance" and "A Sound of Thunder" it's all coming back to you now.

The dream started badly.  You were in line with your family at a house waiting to be sent to Texas.  Everywhere you looked there were posters of president-elect orange trump person, looking like a crazy alligator who could eat a whole a cow.  

Suddenly, there was Ralph Waldo Emerson telling you, "Be yourself."  You realized that you have something to contribute to the world so you decided to talk.  But it wasn't easy.  First you had to put on a fancy suit and tie and then you had make a time machine to go back in time to the University of Washington so you could convince people to learn about the candidates and the issue.

But right there in the University of Washington there was a giant Big foot and it started chasing at everyone.  People started to scream. You grabbed a person from a nearby Big foot and yelled Help.  Everyone stopped and listened, so you kept going.
