image I don't have

When I went biking last weekend, I saw in the corner of a second floor building window a child. Maybe a toddler. Pacifier in her mouth. And she was sitting in the window ledge area that was fenced in by bars that are normally placed on window fittings to keep people from breaking in. The bars jut out just far enough to protect for an air conditioner installation. In the glimpse I had, it looked like a window seat playpen for the child. The window was closed, and the toddler seemed to look out over the street scene without an expression, trapped by the bars of the apartment window. This was in Williamsburg on Myrtle Avenue.
