Cleopatra, Ancient Egypt
The air heats around you and a warm breeze sweeps across your face.
You feel as if you have been transported to some tropical location,
though you know that you are still standing on the sidewalk in front
of your house in rainy Seattle. At least that's what you think.
Still you keep your eyes closed because you don't want this feeling to
go away, this warm, dreamlike feeling. You feel your feet lose touch
with the ground and smile because you know that you are imagining
this. It couldn't possibly be this warm on a day in March. At least
that's what you think. Suddenly the warm air rushes around you
violently and your stomach drops with the sensation of falling and you
start to think that maybe you're not in Kansas anymore. Your're
afraid to open your eyes but afraid not to.
