Dreaming love
“Recently, a journalist in analysis had a dream that stimulated the writing of a poem, the two psychic products occurring no more than a few hours apart. Since the analysand had copious free associations to both products, believing both to be culled from the same unconscious raw material, an interesting study of an act of aesthetic creation almost in statu nascendi became possible.” In Mahon, E. ‘A Poem and a Dream’, Psychoanalytic-Quarterly. Vol 76(1) Jan 2007, 237-255.
