bar scene....crowded, patio out back,
lots of people but also a python - like snake slithering about...

I, of course, am concerned.  It makes it's rounds among us,
and eventually, without much fanfare, I am bitten. 
Twice, once on the top of each hand.

( In a similar dream, it was on just one hand; see
http://www.ditsansoucy.com/dreamjuly2006.html )

Within about a minute, I am feeling the effects in my throat, and know
I may die.  I don't think to suck the poison out yet, but
I simply ask the bar patrons for...a hug. 

No one will give me one.  It's  the loneliest feeling in the world.

Eventually I start sucking and spitting the poison
out from each hand, and feel the choking sensation
diminish some.

At this point I do feel that one person in the bar is
standing by me, if only to witness; a younger man. 

I awake from the dream feeling like know
I know what it must be like to be dying and
not get comfort from anyone. 

And maybe I am not so keen on bars.
