[description]
You are wearing a leaden overcoat stumbling down a hallway filled with
strobe lights. Anxiety runs like an electric wire through your frame as you
can feel the eyes upon you; eyes, forever-staring; eyes boring holes through
your back; eyes peering out from translucent drawer-like plates in the
hall. You hold your breath hoping somehow to black out, but the floor melts
and the scene shifts.
You are running down an endless plain on a moonless night, where the stars
sit in judgement like needles waiting to fall upon you. It rains clocks and
they pelt you as you run, dodging shattered stopwatches and blaring alarm
clocks. The scene shifts again.
Every action seems in slow-motion as though you were moving through time.
You raise your head to look in the mirror and see yourself growing older, a
year for every moment. You turn away and look back to see a skeleton staring
back at you, its jaws gibbering madly.
Then you are sleeping. A gentle touch upon your shoulder and you awake,
blinking into focus a strange and yet uncannily familiar world. The
abandoned parking lot and the broken streets keen with secrets just out of
reach. Before you is the building. It lurks like a coiled dragon, a
summation of fear and deadly challenge, of past and of present. You hear a
final distant voice that seems a greeting as well as benediction, "This is
the dark night of the soul."
