Reflections

I wander today. I found myself on the top of a mountain, surrounded by stone, bricks, and rocks. When I arrived, I could hear the artillery, the bombardments, the conflict. The light was so intense, it felt as though I could not see through the fortress. The republican president was imprisoned, then executed. I did not know what to do. Then a flag with yellow and blood stained stripes appears, and I know all is victorious. Then I am in awe of the games. A huge tower of a flame rises out of the distance. The competitions are over, but the people and the friendship still resides. Fountains of water crash onto basins into a pool where all is still. The sun shines, and illuminates all, but in a good way this time. The people laugh, and all is one with the world. Then there is a happiness for the close of the day, and I leave.
