WOMAN: I had this dream I was at a Nazi Death camp,
but it was a water park. With only the Jews sliding down hundreds
of intertwined tubes. All the Nazis were watching from the ground.
I walked and stood next to the Nazis and saw that all the rides
ended in a violent death. Sometimes two different slides would
end out of no where, and two Jews would fly out of the water
tube slamming into each other and crushing their bones, limply
falling to the ground already riddled with other limp bodies.
Sometimes someone would fly out of the slide into a pool of razors
and rusty spikes. Some would end in a great explosion, with flaming
limbs landing all around the Nazis. In the movies the Nazis
always laugh, and are cocky and are mean. But the Nazis
were in as much pain as the Jews on the slides. They knew what
they had caused, and they were ashamed. They knew their shame
was a life long sentence. And the rides went on like that all
day and all night.
