Michael,
This is brilliant and reminds me of the endless sheets of paper my kids scribble a few lines on and then throw in the bin because it didn't go quite right!
I think the Stereophonics sang "it takes one tree to make a thousand matches but it only takes one match to burn a thousand trees....." something like that anyway.
Brilliantly inventive!
Ben

Excellent use of driving power for a short write, one which many of us writers can relate to!
