…can you smell lightning too?
When the weather is going to change from dry, soul-sapping heat to a quick storm-like shower, when clouds are moving in over a blazing white sun, and the wind is revving itself up among the trees, can you smell the lightning? Does it travel up your sinuses, burning them up, searing a path across your forehead to settle at the top of your head, making every movement agony till the sweet sound of rain, the smell of wet earth and the taste of water in the air distract you from it?
