hell

So I saw hell in a dream the other night, well, maybe it wasn't hell. It didn't look like this, but I think it's interesting that humans try to depict an idea of what it would look like. We can describe it, what the atmosphere is like, who is there, the pain, the fear.

I just had a dream I was going through this tunnel or hole or something, and I was moving through it faster and faster, there was fire on all sides. Creatures, maybe demons or something lashing out at me as I moved. I was going through the tunnel with hundreds of other people and body parts; limbs, heads, etc.  It's like everything was gravitating down through this tunnel, like something was pulling us to an end, but the feeling was that the transit would never end, it was just going to keep me anticipating something, but meanwhile bothered by fear and uncomfortableness.



I kept urging myself to wake up but I couldn't. I was scared but a part of me wanted to continue through and see what would happen. Would I fall forever? I eventually woke up but never saw the end. Yikes.
