      I lie down in my backyard. In Australia. There are ants of all kinds. The occasional little spider goes past. Midges and butterflies and dragonflies and bees. The birds have gotten used to me so they walk within feet of me too.

      They go about their business and I, mine. No harm has come to me. It’s nice to be part of their world sometimes.

      Its weird, as a kid i had no problem laying/rolling around in grass.

      At some point a switch flipped in my head and grass everywhere ‘became infested’ with biting ants, hidden poop, and mud.
