The Wooden Domino Cascade

I strode out from the credenza shadow and noticed five flat wooden domino tiles stacked upright on the polished floorboards like miniature standing stones! I paused, measuring the narrow gap between each one with a careful, deliberate squint. Decisively, I planted my sturdy hind feet, drew back my curved foreclaw, and gave the first tile a sharp, confident flick. Clack-clack-clack! They tumbled into each other in a brisk, rhythmic wave, collapsing flat with a splendid wooden rattle right across the rug. That was an energetic chain of events to wake up the morning!
