Melinda - sight of daily myths

So, here are a few signtings of myth in my daily routine.  Tried to either write them in story form
or create a list of alternative words.


1.         taking the bus

Myth:
            a yellow chariot
            illusions
                        -           what we think we must do
                        -           disguise as being good
                        -           humans trusting a god
            heading for the darkness of the day
            some humans fool the god (actually enjoy where they are going)
            god finds out deceit
                        -           punishment need to be created
            return trip of humans
            illusions
                        -           heading to a better place


 
2.         a cloud

Myth:
            a slow dancing, almost translucent cloud hovering over main street
            out of nowhere
            not of smoke or fog
            just as quick as it appeared it disappeared


3.         tree and the wind

Myth:
            darkness fell
            winds grew and their voices started howling louder and louder
            winds called upon the tree
            -           wake that human
            -           does not deserve to rest in peace
            the tree starts to dance, but not with grace, with anger
            human hears a bang
            tree was swinging and swaying violently toward the palace window
            tree is getting bigger and stronger with a growing angry face
            a battle begins
            tree and the human argue, slamming the window closed and even locking it
            wind is angry with human, so she teams up with tree
            stronger the wind blows, harder the tree dances with anger to cause disruption to the                                     human
            this battle went on almost to sun rise
            human called upon the sun for help
            please as you rise, send wind away
            sun was hesitate for she did not know this human well
            sun tries to explain that it is the wind and tree's annual
            the human pleads, but why do they not let me sleep
            sun complete her rise, but doesn't say a word
            finally the human gives up and head to safety underground
            it seemed like eternity to the human, but then there was silence
