The Banner of the Broken Cross and the Storm of the Worlds - Part One

Supra Section 2 - "A Shadow Covers North America"

CHRISTIAN EHRLICHMAN:

My dreams followed me home,

The ones I had had when I fell asleep in the classroom,

Unable to keep attention,

Forced to read from The Book of the Mother

It was later that day when I was walking

The dirty streets of New York City,

That I was alone, I realized that I had the power

To gain my own thoughts, while everyone else followed these words without question,

As under its spell,

After walking the streets of New York for a bit, seeing the Monument tower over the city,

I went home and lay down and slept for several hours

The dreams I had were beautiful,

I dreamt of a young woman I had never seen before,

Floating far away on these oceans,

The waves taking her over, pulling her in their current,

But she was content and at peace, wanting nothing else but to be submerged in their

Sway forever, pulling her so far but she would never fall under these because these were

Compassionate and merciful to her where the world was clear,

I knew that her angels followed me forever,

Greeting me with joy, and welcoming me as family,

And all we ever wanted was the freedom of the summer light

That seeps through the waters,

I was beginning to hate what I was told

the scriptures within a world

The first dream i had took me far away

from any memory i had of

present experience

all i could see through the flames when i entered this dream

were raging armies fighting to return to their homes

but there they stood forever

in eternal flux, unable to hold their stability

always swayed by everlasting winds of war

my crystal world was shattered and i fell head first into the ground, falling with face covered by the dirt,

my hand clutching the hilt of my sword in its sheath,

and i had power, and light that exuded from

my heart

and guided me within this world to where i needed to go and knew i would not so easily awaken from this dream,

dreams are what all of us live for, running forever

through this world,

striving to find a place of stability

in this world

i was brave and i knew that in

the real world i would never stand and fight,

always would cower and hide from those

with swords in their hands

my power was found in these dreams
