Mummies in the Bedroom, by Cindy Rene

. . . Then I walked right by it. Walking to somewhere I don’t remember, I caught the sun on the wall, enraptured by the light cascading into my room—I was taken. Then taken out of the moment by a slight on the wall. Not a slight but really now a memory.

Caught in the act of death, I froze. Much like the fly before me.
