I just saw that Coradon has dreamed the same thing, but overcame it with his powers of super-lucidity!!
There was one time I really overcame it... and it was a dream where I might have been somewhat lucid. I was drifting along, getting away from this plumber who was trying to make me endlessly flush a communal urinal in the middle of a store (with a long line of men and women and children all waiting to use it)... Instead I drifted around the store and out the door down the street, and then I encountered a power line (just a single one). It was RIGHT in front of me, RIGHT at my level!! And now the plumber was coming after me with a bunch of chinese coolies in pointed hats who were his cronies. They were throwing bricks at me, and as the first brick got close I stopped it in the air with mind power and made it start spinning end over end, then I transformed it rapidly into a bunch of little items... a tiny elephant sculpture, a spinning top, and a few other things. I turned it into different materials too, one of them being gold.
But by now a bunch more bricks were flying at me, so I just froze them and made them all drop out of the air. I noticed the plumber standing apart from the coolies looking at me like he was surprised I could do these things, but he seemed determined to get me down and make me perform meaningless trivial labor. And I was starting to get the idea he was something a lot more powerful than a plumber... he seemed like he was beginning to glow slightly.
He did something and instantly I was standing on the ground in the center of a big empty warehouse space... dark all around except for a circle of light where I stood with the coolies, all in a circle. We all had hand carts with a box on each cart, and we were doing this singalong thing... it wasn't really a circle, but more like a letter C - with a gap in it. The guy at the 'front' of the line would start singing a little song and the rest of us would sing along as we all pushed our hand carts along and walked around the circle. Then he'd step forward across the gap in the C and become the last in line, and the next guy would become the leader and do his song. I was at the 'end' of the line, and when I got up to the front I just stopped and let go of my hand cart. I was curious about what was in the box on it, so I made it open with mind power and made the contents float up into the air. It was just some sort of solid cube of unidentified material, so I turned it into a bunch of stuff.. at one point I had it all disassembled into a myriad of tiny complex components and made them all go together into some kind of machine.
Anyway, now the 'plumber' was done with impersonating a minor character and he started to glow brightly and his uniform shed away. He was something like a god or something, and I was amazed at the sense of his power, but I refused to do these meaningless little tasks he set for me.
Incidentally, I ran into him in a couple of later dreams and he was sitting on the ground with his head in his hand sadly as if disappointed in me. If I manage to become really lucid I want to try to find him and ask him who he is and what the hell was up with all that crap!
Ok sorry... I was just going to write about the power line thing, but I got caught up in the rest of the dream. This one really felt like one of my most 'important' dreams.
....
Oh, and now I realize, I guess I didn't really 'overcome' the power line obstacle, but the plumber just teleported me away from it.
