The Gods Are Sleeping

“The gods are sleeping, dreaming the world—dreaming us—but their dreams have been darker of late: Loam turns to ash and the sun retreats.”

“We must act, lest these nightmares wake them.”

Let’s get metaphysical. This is my response to the weekend’s Trifextra writing challenge, which was to write 33 words inspired by this Paulo Coehlo quote:

“It’s the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting.”

Obviously I took the prompt pretty broadly, but hopefully it still worked out. I thought making it a dialogue between two unnamed speakers would give a good bit of mystery to it, but I’d love to here what you think.

Happy weekend everyone!
