Above all
the noise.
Every evening, when the city began to glow, a little dog climbed the same old stairs to the same old rooftop.
Below him, taxis honked. People ran for trains. Screens flashed with news, numbers, and things that were supposed to matter by morning. Up here, there was only warm concrete, a soft breeze, and a sky that never asked him for anything.
THE WORLD WAS LOUD. THE SKY WASN'T.
