I was riding a roller coaster-a jerky, crazy ride-with my daughter. Half way through we decided we didn't like it anymore and jumped off.
A carnival was going on but it was an evil carnival where no one could leave, ever. Tents lined the whole area; tents for food, jewelry, odds and ends.
I went to a tent where a grandma was selling goods. I told her I wanted to leave the carnival. Quietly, she told me how she could make a drink that I would drink and I would be free to leave. She made it but I could tell she would get in trouble of the main carnival guy found out.
As she mixed it, she told me to think of the easiest way for me to get away. I thought if all the people were animals I could get out. She said to be careful what I wished. I also wished for flowers. I asked how I knew I was free. She told me once I was near the gate, I needed to throw the pouch I was drinking the stuff out of on the ground and it would shatter.
The drink was woodsy and full of herbs. It was a thick white drink.
As I drank, the old woman's helper turned into a goat with big horns. She laughed and said, see, I told you to be careful what you want.
I kept drinking and pushed the goat away from me.
I slowly walked toward the exit while drinking. All the humans were animals. The carnival had gone eerily quiet. Flowers sprang up around the tents.
The ring master or main carnival guy walked with me. He was the only human around. I don't remember what he said but he was quiet and disappointed I was escaping.
Just as I got to the gate, I threw the drink down and it shattered. The carnival came back to life and I left. I think my daughter had been able to get out on her own.
