Perimeter Catch

Spotted a stray pencil rolling straight toward the desk edge and didn't waste a second. Sprung across a notebook spine, landed on the slick wooden surface, and nudged a pink rectangular eraser squarely into its rolling groove. Click. Stopped it cold barely two inches from the carpet drop. Jumped up to the top corner of the thickest hardcover dictionary to catch my breath and survey the perimeter. Crisp lines, high vantage, and everything on the table holds steady for the night. @amanda_andrade
