Serpents discard outgrown skin. As lizards do so too. Birds drop feathers as they fly. Infants grow teeth to bite at life, On the subject of crickets, One in the kitchen and it's beating it's sound. A lucky escapee from the lizard king, or queen. Can hear you singing, but just can't see a thing. One or two. Can't tell. Singing crickets. Crying freedom. (c)LIVVI
