inside   on  the   floor,   two  glowing 
 squares of sunlight flooding  in through 
 the  decorative windows.  slowly  making 
 their  way  across the room,  eventually 
 coming  across  his body. like two  arms 
 reaching his stomach, and then into  his 
 ribcage,   gripping   something   there. 
                                          
 fox  body  pressing   close.  its   eyes 
 opening  his,  asleep  but staring  into 
 its pupils, into the surface of the sun.
