    illuminations on the traffic light at the commencement time of the ride transmuted from crimson to yellow‚ to green. I was moving forward at such a bullet I virtually could not grasp. I could test the panic in my mouth‚ and I could auricular discern the screaming of the kids and parents. I can smell the sweat and warmth in the air. My hands were shaking of what I can visually perceive. There I was the person on top of the Roller Coaster Ride. Fear is in me! A portion of my Encephalon has verbally expressed
