a differrent war

[Patrick Conquest]

I had this dream that I was with friends on a big "c" shaped couch. the only seat available was like this driver seat of a car. I sat down in it and I kept on accidentally hitting buttons that were like blinkers and high beams and it was disrupting the show that everyone was watching on TV. I was like, "I got to get out of this seat I keep hitting all these buttons". then people started talking about how there is a big flood coming and that we need to get prepared. and they said,  " pat for you tonight; you have a train to catch".

then I was approached by this guy he said, "you are going with us to fight in the war. you will be protected from the flood". he showed me this paper where I had signed up. and he promised me i would not be in any danger.

so we get in this big space ship and this guy takes me over to the weapons box kind of looked like a toy box. he pulls out all these big scary guns and tells me how they are so good at wiping "them" out. I was very scared to hold the guns. then he said, "these are easy to hold they are just like the ones you had as a child.

the man said, "they are outside right now but they aren't my color. and your colors are now changed. some people can free them selves". and then he stepped inside the wall and sealed it with plastic. all I could see was his empty hand. as he left he said, "change colors not these colors. they sure ain't black and white". and then I thought I had been tricked into getting into this spaceship and was trapped forever. I started panicking and looking for a way out. then I met this girl and I asked her where everybody went and how to get out.


I asked her if we were going back to earth.
she said, "justin heard the birds outside and saw the sun in the sky".
I thought who is that? I asked her, "did he go outside?".
she said, "yes, he went out that door over there. if you go out there you can fight in the war."
I said, "I don't have any weapons".
she said, "that's not your problem anymore. go out the door and hear the birds sing".

so I went through the door. I had to tear through a few layers of plastic but I eventually found my way out. the spaceship disappeared as i stepped out. when I got outside there was a large group of people and a stage with about 20 musicians singing and making music. then Thom Yorke of radiohead (one of my favorite bands of all time) found me in the crowd.

he said, "that was a long trip you took I just hope you know to stay put. come look. here in this place we feed and take care of these birds because they are beautiful. these birds sing and these birds live in harmony. we don't have a bread shortage. people feed the birds all day here". and I saw two pigeon like birds walking together side by side through a park.

then I asked Thom Yorke if this was the united kingdom. then he said, "it's a new country you don't have to leave". I said, "I don't understand is this england or something?". then he said, "you could go there if you wanted to". then he said, "don't lie it's a beautiful world so live in it".

then I woke up.
