the smell of darkness filled my nostrils,
dankness, moisture, earthworms moving
under my feet, tunneling, eating, leaving
behind dark humus buried under wet leaves.
the sound of cars climbing the hill
in front of our house drifted in the
small windows framed by rotting wood,
snails leaving behind a silvery
trail of mucus, otherwise it was quiet,
i could sit and listen to my heart beat
or listen to the seashore in my ears.

It's humus! Hummus is made from chickpeas. I can't help it, I'm a nerd!
Thanks for your comment. I had a good laugh!
