Analysis of Thoughts in the dream

Karolina Marszałkowska 1993 (Gdańsk)



I'm going through the night
In the darkness I lost sight
I can't find the right way
Will I wander till the day?

At the end of my mind
I can see the small light
What is this ? The hill?
Go there? sure  I will.

Going slowly , sight is back
There is smallest of the track
On the hill a huge cross
On it hangs something gross

It is human , how can be !?
Is it nightmare? just bad dream?
Man opens eyes in pain
I'll listen what he'll say

"Forgive them Father
Cause they don't know what they do"
He's now gone but what he said
Was deffinitely truth
