This is quite an old (and long) article, but it's a fantastic read.
| Quote: | Myths Over Miami
Captured on South Beach, Satan later escaped. His demons and the horrible Bloody Mary are now killing people. God has fled. Avenging angels hide out in the Everglades. And other tales from children in Dade's homeless shelters. |
The full article is here

Fascinating stuff! I've altered the thread title, slightly. The process isn't finished, 'developed', but appears to be more of a collective work in progress.

One of the most moving things I have read in a long time, thank you for linking it.
From the mouth of a 12 year old :
| Quote: | | "I do think a person can dream the moment of his death. Sometimes I dream that when I die soon, I'll be in some high, great place where people have time to conversate. And even if there's no God or Heaven, it won't be too bad for me to be there." |
Something wrong and twisted about a world where people who can express this are downtrodden and forgotten. |
