A Walk Home: the hum of cicada, the crescendo of a passing car, the conversation of a million leaves, the echo of footsteps

in Japan, the cicadas, which are pretty big, play dead, and if you get too close to them, they suddenly jump up and fly. They're scary. They wait on the stairwell of my apartment, 3 or four of them on different stairs and ambush me.

The cicada won't ambush you. i'm convinced they hardly care about our existence. They may seem scary, but that's just their nature. Kind of like that guy who has the hideously annoying laugh, or the girl with chronic bad breath.
