I dream of a blaze in the sky, like shooting stars. Only larger. The blaze breaks into three balls of fire, streaking like Chun Jie fireworks.
I dream of the explosions. The balls of fire smacking right into the earth, roaring like the sea in rage.
I dream and I do not know why I dream of a blaze in the sky.
Waking up with the taste of fire, of something burned and charred in my mouth. I stare at the early morning sky, still dark with the hint of rosy dawn.
I dare not close my eyes.
I do not go back to sleep again.
