The dream is me, but I'm the dreamer. Is the dreamer just a dream? I see me, but I'm the seer. Am I not what I may seem? An impasse, for Alice in the Looking glass - is this perception's trick? An inversion, I have another version - which one should I pick?

Indeed David, it's wierd when one is watching one's self in a dream or even when thinking, it's like being the observer and the observed all at the same time, as if from another dimension. You have expounded the conundrum very well. All the best in the contest - Hugs Maria
