accessible...

.

the intersecting streets are empty 
a red footprint has stopped on the sixth line of the zebra crossing
the traffic light goes green
there are no cars to pass
the yellow curtain behind a window at the corner ripples
a little boy is craning his neck
to watch the street over the windowsill
but the only thing he can see is
the blue sky
