grasshoppers grow by sheding their exoskeletan

tonight, watering, this
stands out
someone changed
grew
and i squat, staring, wondering what that
feels
like?

also, thinking on the porch steps, to past years when So Many grasshoppers ate pretty much everything…
this year, that was so odd already, and there are very few grasshoppers.
but this one grew, fulfilling it's destiny
