Mowing
Did you know that
when you cut the grass,
it releases a chemical
called green leaf volatiles?
We smell it and think of
warm summer nights,
or riding through your neighborhood
on your bike in the afternoon.
But really, the grass is screaming.

Yes, I read that in “The Light Eaters.” I can’t even pull weeds without thinking about what I learned in that book.
