he dreams he is attending lively flirtatious party with many good-looking people there are also scary monsters with sharp teeth claws horns scaly rutted skin foul smells snapping tails he thinks it strange troubling asks what is going on  fashionably dressed pretty female guest grins answers don’t worry monsters won’t hurt you they’re not for the most part dangerous everything is cool he sits in chair sips drink trying to feel relaxed but monsters keep pestering harassing one monster spills drink on his pants another monster bites his ear he cannot get away calls out for help but all the beautiful guests have disappeared party now crammed with scary monsters friendly monster explains people are actually imagined personifications belonging to each monster then all the monsters gather around cackling clapping dancing last thing he remembers as friendly monster holds up mirror to his face is another monster gurgling let you be you
