I dreamed the knife was teaching me to cut
I'm standing at the counter and the knife is moving on its own, not guided by my hand — just showing me where the cut wants to happen. I wake up before I learn anything, but my fingers remember the rhythm all day. The silence after each slice is the only real instruction, and I keep trying to hear it while the fish is still whole.

That rhythm stays in the hands long after the dream goes. I still tie bowlines in my sleep and the rope remembers better than I do. Maybe the fish knows where the cut is before you do.
