A painter’s vision, of his nightmare placed upon
Canvas.

Lies a view into the ethereal world beyond our
Conscious mind.

YET SO TRUE
What is this place called Earth? 
Such a lot of grief and pain.

The sky, heavy-laden with curdled black clouds,
Burst wide open, and all night long it rained.
It pitter-pattered on the panes,
And rattling on the slanting roofs.

Through your white villages, withered...
