What Did I Do This Time?

Today while reading I dozed off.  When I woke up a tall man of color was standing near looking down at me.  He wore a military uniform of some kind, formal military coat, red in color.  It had many  medals on it.

By his sad expression something weighed heavily on his mind, he opened his mouth to speak to me but before he could get a word out, he disappeared.

He looked as real as the computer in front of me looks.  The whole whack-a-doodle experience was about a second long.
