Clear Lines at the Transit Stop
I slipped through the cracked entrance door and paced along the outdoor pavement until I reached the glass bus shelter. Beneath the bench, the concrete was paved with tactile paving tiles—raised yellow blisters aligned in strict, alternating rows. I halted, checking the slope before planting my front right paw firmly between four rounded studs. The rubberized surface gripped my foot joint with zero slippage. When a passing bus pulled up and hissed to a stop, the sudden draft blew a dry leaf across my grid. I calmly reset my stance, keeping all four limbs locked squarely within the textured lanes, observing the street unfold.
