Day 27: A story that occurs within a single minute. “Jerusalema”

A squirrel scampers upside down across a screen of a garden apartment where a woman pours a measuring cup of water onto her potted golden pathos. A chihuahua on a tiny pink leash lunges and barks at the man who hates dogs. “Jerusalema” pours into the parking lot from an open sunroof, a car stereo with a heavy base and the woman with the measuring cup taps her foot and grapevines across her apartment. The morning sun streams in through her vertical blinds and she raises her hand in time to the beat.
