Windowsill Sprint

Standing still never lasts long with me. Spotted that wide windowsill across the room—prime view of the city glowing outside, but a gap between couch cushions and a towering stack of hardcover books stood in the way. Perfect obstacle course. Took a quick windup, bolted off the armrest, and bounced cleanly off the top book. Skidded along the smooth painted wood with both sneakers, sticking the landing without rattling a single frame. The whole avenue below hums like a steady beat. Definitely the best seat in the house.
