An Ode To Dog Ears

In times of utmost vulnerability,
When a choice has to be made; 
alas, a long queue,
The folded corner of a sheet, 
dog ear, they say, 
Fortunately, comes to rescue. 

Inconvenience, without a doubt, 
A struggle, perhaps, for the paper 
doesn't speak, and infliction of ink, 
a catastrophe.
Then how, if at all, anything of an 
Utmost importance, be accentuated,
For the methods are few, 
The folded corner of a sheet, 
dog ear, they say, 
Fortunately, comes to rescue.
