Sinister

In my dream, the virus Covid19 was not an infectious pathogen, but an organised group of people—like some sort of sinister army. The overarching idea of the dream was to evade capture by this group. The part of my dream I remember most vividly is being in a building already on the third floor, and looking out and seeing the Covid19 group marching towards the building entrance. There was no way I would be able to exit that way. There were tall poplars, or some sort of bendy pine trees beside the building. I climbed into one and held on as it slowly bent over and then I grabbed on to the next one and the next until I reached the ground. I was desperately hoping that no one would see me.
