THE DREAM I had a frozen shark and thawed it into a tub of water on a porch outdoors, the tub was full of clear water, when the shark thawed it was alive and thrashing in the tub, I had a long knife and kept stabbing at, the knife was getting smaller and I finally believed it was dead, I started to skin it. After meticulously skinning the shark it was devoid of its external skin and began to thrash once more, I killed it with a final stab and then continued to peel away each layer of the shark till it was dismembered in all its parts laying at the bottom of a now dry tub. I wanted to save the jaw full of teeth, I left for a moment only to return with someone having cleaned the are and covered the tub with a blanket, next to the tub were three boards that looked like diving boards hanging over the blanket covered tub. I found the person who took my shark parts and then my area resumed as it was before I left it alone, I obtained the shark jaw full of teeth and went into another dream segment.....
