The wintry morning was bright with sunlight.

A large bird flew above the city

Its nest hidden high in the crevice of a skyscraper

It brought back a mouse to its mate

Who sat on two white eggs

The wind ruffled their feathers

As they ate

And looked out over their vast domain

The End

The Topless Dancer is a short story.
