Flip through the oxford dictionary, just to see the words swirl.
Not looking for any particular word, just a slow-paced pattern of parchment.
black worms wriggling on pages? How discomforting..
Rotating mini-zebras? The more I flip, the smoother it looks
like a black and white rainbow stretching really fast. Blowing out bubbles of black.
I love thick books, not necessarily due to its content but just the feel of it, something chunky. it's wholesome and reminds me of loaves of bread or cheese. I'm fidling around with this pocket sized book, such a small thing carrying so much substance. I open to a random page and the word "groom" catches my eye. It's a sign.. A sign for me
To take a shower.
