Christ

Explain the dream with Christ.
Joe is still trying to communicate and the nurses thought he was crazy and just couldn't relax, so they gave Joe a sedative. The medicine that they give him makes him very trippy and starts to have a dream about Christ. In his dream he remembers the time when he was at the train station getting ready to leave for war. Jesus had saved the souls from those who have died in the war. I believe that Joe wants Jesus to save him. He wants mercy from him. He is tired of trying to communicate and failing and needs someone to help him and relieve his pain. Christ is someone who sacrificed himself for the sake of others, just like Joe did when he fought in the war. Joe also has a dream that he is playing cards with a group of men and Christ. Everyone in the group had died, mostly in war. Joe had not died yet so he was left to feel alone. I believe that he dreams of Christ because Joe has sacrificed his life to war and not died yet but wishes too move on from his pain.
