I am eating pine cones from the bin of a produce stand. The pine cones are surprisingly succulent and tasty despite their appearance. I notice in the bottom of the produce bin there is a layer of earth and what looks like worms tunneling away from the light.

I’m in my apartment. A worm is following me. The cats are stalking it. They’re not getting close enough to do anything about it. I toss a weight onto the worm but it wriggles out from underneath. It’s still following me only it’s flat on one side now.
