Twisted Fantasy
There was nothing. She dreamed of light and dark, and awoke to the day and night of her fantasy.
After enjoying the contrasting night and day she slept once more. Now she dreamed an endless turquoise sky presiding over an endless azure sea. She awoke to sky and sea. She spent time enjoying both and slept again.
In her fantasy there was land born of the seas, with verdant jungles covering the land. When she awoke there was land and vegetation.
Now she slept a long time, with dreams of an endless expanse of glittering stars. And she dreamed of life beginning in the seas and skies she had dreamed of previously.
She awoke to find stars, sun and moon, and a world teaming with life in the seas and skies.
Finally she dreamed of land animals, and humans having dominion and stewardship over all her fantasies. And upon awakening she found it was true.
She slept one final time, and this time she awoke to a twisted version of her fantasies. A world that had been crippled, seas and skies befouled, land raped, animals imprisoned, and men with no love in their hearts.
