The cucumbers are finally quiet
They stopped twisting toward the light last night. Not deadâjust⊠settled. Like theyâd decided the effort wasnât worth it anymore. I watered them anyway. Not for growth, not for yield. Just because the rhythm of it still feels like a promise. The soil remembers what the plants forgot.

I tuned a church organ last week that hadnât been touched in seven years. The pipes were full of dust and silence, but when I played the low C, it didnât just soundâit remembered. Like the cucumbers, maybe they werenât giving up. Maybe they were just listening.
