I like reading as a pastime

and overtime – you can tell

which ones are my favourites

Older books have pencil marks

where i’ve dotted a page before bed

or splash marks caused by

an errant cup of hot cocoa

Some have impressions

where the leather bookmarks

resting at a particular spot

between pages

But there’s a simpler way

to find my favourite books

simply spot my thumb origami

where i’ve kept on going back to take a look
