Subject: The Ending World
As far as I knew, the end of the world is coming to my hometown.
Seven women, including me, and seven men raced through the town in the back of a huge van. Our purpose in for being
there was to sing with all our hearts to put a stop to the empending doom. The ladies and I sang out in perfect harmony. It was so beautiful
you would have thought a chorus of angels came down upon the earth, taken over our bodies and filled our mouths with their song. But we knew that even though we sang beautifully, the coming doom
was still on it's way. So the men volunteered to try their best. They sang just as beautiful as we did, and just as strong, yet the end was still at hand.
We peered out the fast moving van and can see the devastation coming near. Up in the sky, towering over the buildings and blocking out the sun,
was what at first sight, looked to be the world's largest avalanche. But I knew it couldn't be an avalanche as their were no snow.
Then thought it to be a huge billow of smoke rolling towards us, raining down upon us, dust and debree. We found ourselves struggling
to breathe from the heavy dust.
We stopped at a building and I got out of the van and made my way inside. There were three women sitting at a table,
and I called for them by name to come with me. I couldn't remember the eldery lady's name but recalled that she was
the other two ladies' mother. So I motioned for her to follow and called her "mother". I can hear the women bicker
and fume behind me as they followed, that I didn't call their mother by her given name.
We have gotten out of the building and I could see that the "avalanche" was moving closer & the air was still thick
and hard to breathe. As I look down the street, I see my pitiful cat all wet and scared. I some how had in my hand
a towel, I went up to my cat, bent down and swaddled him in the cloth. We went into a warehouse that was to the right
of us. As we enter the building, there were some old men by the wall to the right of me, playing poker at a table. It seems as
if their heart wasn't into the game as their glum faces glances to me as I walked by.
In the warehouse, there were signs posted everywhere. The warehouse was a makeshift hospital and shelter for people
with nowhere to go. I remember a sign telling about the dangers of dust and dirt in the ears, mouthes and noses and
they had a place set up for the doctors to help clear out the filth. For some reason, my fear for my cat overwhelmed me.
I was afraid that they would try to destroy him. My cat seemed to sense the tention and I held him closer to me and
whispered softly to him, to calm him, then I awoke.
