In the morning while leaving the subway to catch the next one , I glanced quickly at a young adult with a computer bag in tow . He brought a book in his left hand with its spine turn downwards and the cover turned outwards . A sheaf , a " pocket book " , bigger than mine of 400 pages , I deducted about 700 . The marker was almost halfway but more to the outwards side , meaning , he had started the book some time ago and was almost halfway into it . Perhaps even page 260 or so . . .
Amazing the deductive reasoning of the human mind .

Leafless
I feel like a leafless tree , not lifeless , just leafless . I await my new layer patiently .
I look around and see green layers , dirty-green , jasmine-green , oak-green , Autumn-green , new green , old green and yellowed green ready to fall from the other trees ' branches onto the floor .
But green was never my color , maybe I 'll have flowers this time , or even purple leafs .
What if I tried a dark layer this time . dark enough to camouflage me in the midst of all the dead trees .
