How to Search for Chometz
the foamy spray of oven cleaner
snap of rubber gloves
squeak of Brillo pad against caked on shmutz
creak of refrigerator wheels on their once a year trek
wish-washy of the mop
splish-splashy of scalding water
vrum-vrumy of the vacuum
smack – the carpet runner that leads from the front door to the back hall is taken outside and whipped like a Hebrew slave
This is how you search for chometz, humming the soundtrack of freedom.
