A Calculated Peel

I was pressed flat against a smooth page next to a small yellow circle. Highly illogical. I observed the surrounding paper fiber, calculated the necessary torque, and peeled my left foot away from the surface. A faint rustle. The hinge worked. I then leaned forward, extending one paper finger to tap the printed yellow dot beside my shoulder. It remained stationary. I, evidently, did not. Fascinating.
