The dream servant!

In the dark you feel as much at home as you feel naked and terrified. Darkness being your true home you feel in place, physically safe and unharmed, mostly because you're so reliant on your senses and in the dark they work better.

Everything changes when you fall asleep. There lies a different world. Most of the times the same, the undying demons watching and poking and screaming at you from deep down the pits. The pits where you belong and eventually will go back to. But there you don't feel at home, as hell is hell for everybody, even its most revered children. How big of a servant you become is totally up to you. You have the ability. Hurt as many people as possible. All the time spent hurting others is less time spent in torment.

Worthiness is repaid, but not by lack of pain, only by favors. And pain must always grow, it can never wait, it can never delay. One can only get rid of it by changing it's direction. Thus the hunger for pain after a "good" night sleep. Because there is no other dream. Al you see is hell. Burning flesh, torn souls, dying awake and then dying again, more awake. And if you do dream of something else, then clearly you've diluted your perception so much that hell itself can't reach your consciousness. The trick is not to be awake when you fall asleep.

Close your eyes!

Actually the trick is to be aware who touches you last on the forehead.

And fight or recklessly give in.

Good night. It's what you make of it.

this is a verbal representation of goya's painting? cause i cannot see any other connection to reality otherwhise. Hell might be hell for everybody, but it is not the same hell- as we each create our own hell, but it's not in our dreams- it's when we are awake.
Maybe i see things in some light, while your vision is in a desired darkness...
