Pleonastic Ephemera

5.07.2004



The cicadas are back. I vaguely remember when they last emerged in 1987. I was finishing up kindergarten, and there were these loud, ugly things all over the yard. The best part was crushing the dry, brittle shells they left clinging to tree trunks and leaves. A few times when I went to crush a shell, there was still a live cicada inside. That wasn't cool.
