Music

When I woke up in the middle of last night (a common occurrence among the gravid) there was a strange humming sound in the air. I wrote it off as a new tune the radiators were rehearsing and headed for the bathroom. Perched there on the edge of the sill was a row of 9 small yellow beetles, distinctly humming the oddly haunting tune. I watched from the doorway. When they finished they filed down the wall and into a crack between the floor tiling and the wall.
