Dream of

Recently I have been having recurring mountain climbing dreams. Once a year teams of spiritualists train and gather to climb a mountain that has claimed many lives over the years. It takes weeks to climb and most perish in the snow. The beginning of the climb has fair weather and the ground is of light copper dirt. This point is full of rituals; the most common of which is the taking various hallucinogens. There are strange creatures found along the climb; some mystical, some dangerous. The "top" of the mountain seems to be a difference realm or plane of existence inhabited by extraterrestrials. Year after year word spreads about the journey and the once sacred climb becomes more commercialized. Although, the true seekers do not indulge in the festivities at the base of the mountain. We climb on into the cosmos.
