the view from my kitchen

Between my building and the next building there is a row of sheds. The roof of the sheds is like community property where folks hang there laundry, little girls play hopscotch and jumprope, and this guy raises a chicken. No kidding. I saw that make-shift cage contraption for a while and would see him and his wife putting food through one of the holes, but I never had any idea what it was until the other day. It's a chicken. In a cardboard box cage on the roof of a shed in the middle of the city. Right outside my kitchen window.
