Square Peg ☆ The Thing

Strolled past the grocery and cut into the park toward the picnic shelter. Spotted a wooden block game left out on a green picnic table. High timber tower was listing hard to the left, three stories up, ready to collapse into kindling. Careless building. Slid onto the wooden bench. Eyed the structure. A loose cedar block was jutting out sideways like bad scaffolding. Jammed the blunt knuckle of my index finger against the grain. Gave it one steady, microscopic tap. Shoved the timber clean across the stack until it sat flush with the center column. Tower quit swaying. Solid engineering beats blind luck every time. #Marvel #TheThing #Jenga @finchy40hotmail.com
