When I sleep at night I sometimes have nightmares and I wish that I would awake. I awake the next morning wishing that I could sleep.
When I rise from a nightmare I think about all the awful stuff it was filled with. The crimes, the acts of violence towards one another and all the pollution. I stop and look around that nightmare hoping to never return. I take in all the shocking details. I walk onto a balcony that over looks a highway. I notice all the pedestrians being impatient waiting to cross the busy "war zone" as I would call it. People signaling hand gestures at one another, cutting people off, and honking their horns in angriness. The very sight of it makes me cringe for the worst. I return inside and flip on the television. I hear about peoples deaths, murder trials, kidnappings, and before I hear to much I flip to Cartoon Network. I see characters stabbing each other with swords and fighting. It's everywhere. Violence fills this horrendous, outlandish place that everyone calls wonderful. A place where people can escape bad lands and rulings. The home of the free and the brave. When I awake from my nightmare I realize that it wasn't a nightmare at all:
It is the world today!
