Slither

I'm laying down with my hands behind my head at the edge of a small river bank, but the water is completely still and a muddy brown color. The grass is full and solid around me. A salamander that has changing camouflage with its surroundings slides out of the water and makes a big circle around me. I am not in my body yet, so I see the perfect circle that the lizard makes around me. I come back in my body and begin to stare into the eyes like it was an old friend. The salamander looks at me and blinks its eyes, like it knows what I'm thinking. It understands somehow too. The salamander goes back into the river, and the river becomes round as the edges near the shore fold down and the center comes to a rounded edge. The river has become the salamander. I am not in my body once again, so I can see the water of the river that is the salamander has feet and slides away to the right and down the way the river is going. The water is gone but the land remains empty and muddy without water.
