caught in a rut

[being human]

Im at the bottom of a trench.
a very very deep trench.
Its maybe 20 ft deep.
Its basically a long, deep, narrow
hole in the ground.
The sand is softer than ever.
It is black and orange...like clay..but soft.
I proceed to climb up.
There are others to my left and right also.
Im climbing up inch by inch and as I do the sand keeps
falling and I keep slippin.
It almost feels like a competition.
I get to the top finally and get out.
*shift*
I turn around and my brother is on the other
side of the gap.
the hole has been filled in by loose sand now.
My brother jumps right into the hole and sinks through
the soft, loose dirt.
He looks extremely distraught.
I panic and I extend my bare right foot to him.
Sand is in his eyes and mouth and he grabs my foot.
I wake up.

*I think this one symbolizes my financial troubles.
