JOSS STICKS, SANDALWOOD AND DOT COTTON

The languid burn of a joss stick behind the counter of the corner shop. I'm captivated by a long piece of ash drooping from the stick, refusing to fall. How long can it defy gravity, spreading sandalwood throughout the store? 


Oddly, I almost tiptoe away, thinking of Dot Cotton.
