On the seventieth floor there are teak trees, lemon trees, eucalyptus trees and cypress trees; on the seventieth floor there are swamps littered with banyan trees, and cedar trees on the coast; on the seventieth floor there are eight hundred and fifty billion trees; on the seventieth floor there are more trees than there will ever be men.


    On the eighty-first floor there are six billion mirrors, and six billion diamonds, and there are more reflections than both combined.


    A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.


    On the eighty-eighth floor there is an ancient iron ship larger than a house, larger certainly than the teahouse, loaded with ancient steel crates; now it is rusted, now it will never float.


    On the ninety-second floor there is ocean,


    and on the ninety-third floor there is not.
