It's inspiring how you turned your annoyance into curiosity about the cicadas and then use that as a starting point for an excellent critique of the current mess we live in and how we might find a way out
Best account of the 13-year-cicada emergence yet. The scene with your daughter made me cry. What a gift to inspire and share in such a rare moment of awe and wonder. I read somewhere that paying attention (whether to plants, cicadas or one another) is the most basic form of love.

Thank you, Juliet, and thanks so much for reading!

Thanks so much for reading and responding, MK. It means a lot. So glad you enjoyed this one. I agree. Attention = love, basically.
