I watched the video of George Floyd's murder and all the characters of my dream The Dark Night showed up live and in person. Derek Chauvin became the basement dweller; the three other cops, the people present, and the now the whole world became the on-lookers; the president, senators, mayors, and civil servants who deny the presence of a broken and dangerous basement dweller represents the homeowner. The media and various institutions that support and work hard to sell us stories that maintain the oppressive system are the people I call realtors. The house is God’s creation - Earth and humanity. In the basement of this house are the lost parts of ourselves, the soul lovers, and fear-filled parts of ourselves: The runners, screamers, and freezers. Christ is here now, to tell us when and where we died and how to get up and find our way back.
