After we marched in the kickoff for Occupy Pittsburgh, I dreamed that the seven of us were standing in a long line of people waiting to get into a restaurant and nothing was happening. No one at tables was getting served and the line wasn't moving. I stuck my head into the kitchen and no one was there. There were plenty of supplies and pot and pans, but no one doing anything. I went back to my other six friends and told them to come into the kitchen and we'll just cook the food and feed ourselves.
When I woke, the analogy was obvious. Our government and corporate leaders have abandoned the kitchen, so we have to do it ourselves.
The good thing is that when the kitchen is empty, we get to make whatever we want.
