"WHERE DREAMS DEVOURS REALITY & FANTASY ALIKE & YOUR SANITY IF YOU SO DESIRE".
The, "Dream World Express", is an extension of your over active imagination, it emanates from where your nightmares are born. There is a fine line between reality and fantasy and here is where that invisible line is drawn. The realm where this haunted locomotive dwells, is a place where anything that your mind conjures up becomes a literal reality, it's a mental world where the manifestations of your fears become tangible and possess such a profound depth that insanity is lurking just around the proverbial corner. The conscious and unconscious worlds' begin to merge together and bleed in upon one another, distorting both dimensions of the real and unreal. This obtrusively vibrant vortex is a maze of uncertainties and occasionally terrifying and confusing states of consciousness. When you travel the Dream World Express anything is remotely probable. It possesses unlimited possibilities where you can wake up from one dream and merge into yet another dream, where you are sinking deeper and deeper into delusions of a now insane mind. Each car is another form of reality one may contain and imprison your fears, another phantom car can hold traumatic experiences from your life , ones that you have regressed to maintain your sanity and keep you from going as mad as a hatter. This is the proverbial rabbit hole that opens up and swallows you whole. This metaphysical realm dwells within the mental core of every man, woman and child and sometimes it doesn't even stop there, but transcends beyond the boundaries of mortal consciousness. and into the infinite.
"The Power of The Dimensional Mind"There is no limit to what the mind can achieve and we all use so little of our brain complicity, that we are not even certain about what the mind is capable of doing while in our sleeping state. For all we know, we possess the ability to create alternate dimensions and as we slumber covered in a blanket of soft fluffy clouds in one realm of existence, we may be living another life in another separate realm that also feels completely real.

"Mental Shape-Shifting"Also inside of this altered state of consciousness, we possess the ability to change our physical appearance, either by taking on the physical body of someone totally different from ourselves, as well but not limited to the forms of perhaps other animal species. This process differs from individual to individual depending upon the imagination of that particular person. In any case, the mind sees no real harm in these visually stimulating metamorphism's, the mind may even suspect that we are connecting with a more primitive part of our essence.

The mind is a very haunted place, filled with enumerable mysteries and even magic, dark as well as good. It is a vortex where the fantasy world becomes more real than even reality feels. Whatever you can envision inside of your mind, no matter how fantastic or exaggerated it may feel, this part of your mind can make it reality or at least where it feels that way. Your mind may even be tricked in believing that you are merely experiencing a lucid dream where you are capable of tasting, touching, and even feeling and smelling everything as if you are in deed right there.
" The Journey Of The Imagination"
Imagine stepping into your mind and entering into this vintage train car. Swept away is the real world where your physical body exists, and is magically replaced with visions of the past. Not necessarily your past either. As you stand breathless at the front of the car, your sight caresses the long wooden benches along the glass lined walls of the train car before you. With each breath you can smell the wood the benches are made from, you can feel the solidity of the floor beneath your feet. Your body moves with the steady rocking motion of your proverbial chariot and you press the palm of your sweating and slightly trembling hand against the cool metal of the wall to steady yourself and to keep from being pitched forward. You have no idea how you got here and if that isn't bad enough, you don't even know where here is exactly. All you know, is you have somehow managed to leave the real world behind and have entered into the core of your own haunted imagination. Do you turn back and exit the way you have come in or do you walk up to the next door that stands in front of you like some silent sentinel lost in time? You want to move your feet, but when you try, your feet sink down into the sticky fibers of some massive spider-web of your own creating. As you look to the left and right, you see visions from your life passing in lightning flashes across the reflective glass of the cabin. Each scene has been ripped from the milky white pages of your memories and although you don't consciously remember the visions before you, you understand upon a deeper level of consciousness that they have indeed happened just as you see them playing out. You can feel the steady pounding our your erratic heartbeat slamming full force against the protective wall of your chest. Your mouth has gone completely dry and you know that even if you look for something to drink, you will not find anything. Your mind feels like it is spinning in a wave of sheer madness and suddenly you want to leave, you want to run away as fast as you can and never look back. Your not sure what has you so utterly terrified and spooked, but you have never been so frightened in your entire life. Your heartbeat feels like it has managed to hitch unnaturally up into your throat and you swallow hard to shove it right back down where it belongs. You close your eyes to try and gather your bearings and all the while praying that when you open your eyes, you will be safe and sound in your own bed. But when you open your eyes back up again, nothing like that has happened and your heart sinks deep into the empty void of your stomach, leaving the taste of sour upon your parched tongue. You mentally ask yourself if you are having a nightmare, but even as you ask that question you know the answer. Without the slightest warning, the cabin begins to vibrate and you are pitched forward despite the fact that try to remain erect upon your feet. Wiping the beads of sweat from your brow and upper lip, you look toward the front of the cabin and both doors are hanging wide open. A pale violet mist is rolling into the cabin like eerie smoke and quickly moving in your direction. Tiny flashes of violet blue and orange bolts of electricity spark like lightning around the expanse of the door and although no one is there but you, you hear someone whisper softly into your ear. Goose bumps kiss your chilled flesh and the hair upon the nape of your neck and the backs of your arms stand on end like fragmented shards of broken glass that piece your very skin. Not only does the train car sound like it is being torn apart by some unseen force, but you can also hear the loud rush of wind spilling into and outside around the metal car. The violent crash of thunder echoes out into the quickly gathering darkness that has all but swallowed everything in utter blackness. from where you now sit upon one of the wooden benches, you hear what sounds like metal being ripped apart . From off in the distance, you hear the sound of crazed laughter as though it is colliding with the thunder like two ancient and insane warriors. Then before you know what's happening......
"The Belly Of The Beast"
Within each and every creature that which exists upon the physical realm of existence, lies an inner darkness. You can deny this about yourself all you want to, but it will still not change the fact that it exists within your mortal core. Everybody possesses the ability to be good and bad, it's simply the nature of reality. Just as nature is both positive and negative, as are we whether we choose to accept such harsh and raw truth about ourselves or not. This is the corridor that holds your darkness at bay. Metaphorically speaking that is. This place holds all of our inner fears and our ignorance and hate. There are those among the mortal masses that possess the ability to link with that darkness and they simply release it easier than some. This isn't necessarily a bad thing. Just as there is life and Death, night and day, Heaven and Hell, good and bad and so on and so forth. There must be a balance, a place where both the dark and the light must be as one and there is no way around this. For good to exist, so much the bad, one will not exist without it's counterpart no matter how badly we wish it were so. There will be situations that will arise in our lives that we will require the darker side of our soul. No one being can be all good or all bad, a spark of the other component must remain. because that is the natural order of things. The body is no different from our environment, just as the world around us is proof of this form of maintaining a united balance, so must we, mind, body and soul. In the end there are no winners and no losers. because both sides must win to maintain that combined balance. We may not like to see the end results like this, but whether we choose to acknowledge this fact, the truth is still the truth plain and simple.
" Just As There Is Darkness, So Shall There Be Light"
Just as we possess an inner darkness, we also possess the light of love and hope within our mortal core. We are limitless beings and the main reason being, we have all been created in the image of God. There is a spark within each and every man, woman and child, that is an extension of a greater power other than that of man. However, whether we choose to link ourselves to that eternal light is entirely up to the individual, but it is there and so shall it always be. We all possess the power to be powerful and wonderful beings and so choose to do so, while others choose to take the darker route. We see all of the negativity that is produced in the world around us and think the bad out weighs the good, but we couldn't be more wrong. You just don't see all of the good, because this is how the darkness tries to swallow the light. Everything balances the other out. The good that seems to be shrinking around us at warp speed, is still there. It is just that darkness is trying to get ahead of the game and the only way to try and accomplish this, is to make sure that we focus on the negative more frequently. Even if it were to be the other way around, it still wouldn't change the fact that both are equal, just as we are all equal. People do good things for bad reasons and bad thing for good reasons, that is just the way it is. We are not perfect nor shall we ever be. And just as the darkness can and is released, so it the good. We beat ourselves up over things that are out of our control, we are only mortal not immortal and like it or not, we control nothing. If we simply accepted this fact, our lives would be less stressful and better lived. We are constantly trying to obtain perfection and that will never happen, because perfection does not exist within.
