During the morning on Saturday, I was doing some remote overtime work for the government agency where I make the daily bread as a government bureaucrat. I decided to do roughly six hours, then it was off to the second gig at the mental health support house where I dispense medication to the mentally ill.  

Before I do the SSS (shit, shave, shower) I decided to take a power nap, and during this power nap, this latest dream experience took place.

It look like that I was in some sort of subway on my way into a building that resembled the gov’t building. Once in the building somethings were distorted and I’m not too sure of what went on. Then  the picture began to clear up.

I was showing a new employee around, then it was lunch time and we entered the canteen.  The meals were being served, but then when it was mine turn to be served the food ran out. But, when I looked at the grill there were some ribs, and prime cut beef being grilled. It was not what was being served.

Since the regular food ran out me and the new employee were given a piece of the meats, but the question remains who were they preparing the for? Well, as long as I got my meal, it wasn’t a big deal for me to know.

The new employee went to his seat to eat the food, I’ll meet up with him later. I went to get a table. I found that most of the tables were taken. Then things got a bit distorted.

When the picture cleared up again, the dining hall resembled the hall that we used to eat dinners during my primary school days. I was looking to exit the hall but there was some sort of game playing being set up.

Not too sure what the game was, but there were boundaries, to me it looked like skelly a game that kids play on the street. The boundaries looked similar to that game set up.  I tried my best not to upset the boundaries.

I wanted to make my way to the exit door, but due to the boundaries I could only make it to the nearest exit door. I gathered that I could just go one floor down and go to the direction that I wanted to go.

But, when I went through the exit door, I found that I was outside. I could not go back through the exit door to go back inside because it was one of those doors that didn’t allow re-entry.

I went down a long escalator down into the street and while I was going down the escalator my clothes were ripped off. When I got to the street level, I found that I’m walking around naked.  

I had to take another escalator up to the subway where I had to enter to get back into the building.  I hoped the cop that is usually at the station is there because I doubt that they would allow me to go into the subway while I’m naked.

I went up to the subway entrance and I could see through the glass that a man wearing a blue shirt, was restrained by police, but the police were beating him while he was on his knees with his hands handcuffed behind his back.

I could see the sweat from the beaten man staining his shirt. I went to take a closer look to see the extent of what was going on.

When I opened the door, and peaked in I saw that there were a group of men detained by the police and all of then were perspiring after experiencing being beaten.

Then a cop pulled out a plastic bag and placed it over the face of one of the restrained men. He was cutting off the man’s breathing. Then the cop took the bag from over the restrained man’s face before the man passed out from lack of oxygen.

Then the other cops followed suit and put a similar plastic bag over the men’s face of who were being restrained.  The whole atmosphere looked like the restrained men were being tortured.

While I was observing what was going on, I felt a tap on my shoulder, somebody told me to leave the area.

When I closed the door to leave and to make my way into the subway, there was another door that I had to go through. But at this door that was a guard. It was a soldier, and when I was approaching the door, the guard stood up at attention when he saw me.

This is when I realized that I’m on a military base. Then I got to understand, that those who appeared to be beating while in restraints were participating in some type of training exercise.

Perhaps the trainees are undergoing what it feels like to be in restraints and being manhandled because they will be put into a position that they may have to do those types of things to others.
