Is this article a prose or a micro-novel?

bird's nest

I gathered up the broken branches under the eaves, and the fingernail-sized bird droppings condensed into a lump and stuck to the ground.
The nest had been in the corner of the house many days ago. The birds were noisy and squeaky, wantonly indulging themselves.
Winter and summer passed, and he had been in university for a long time. At the foot of the door, there was a huge society at his feet.
His future was uncertain, and he felt an inexplicable panic in his heart.
The birds went their separate ways, and there was no clear cry in the morning.
Laying in bed and taking out food became the norm, and the house became extremely messy and lazy to tidy up.
"This bird's nest needs to be cleaned up." "It's not good for your appearance," said her roommate.
"Keep it. It's a memento."
I swept the floor, mopped twice, and polished the windows until they were bright and clean.
The dormitory was clean and bright, and the bird's nest was also pleasing to the eye.
I began to hope for something.
He was used to waking up early and reading books. It was as if he could hear the sound of birds in his ears.
When she woke up that morning, she saw a small bud at the end of the dead branch outside the window, and the flower bud was swaying in the wind.

I'm waiting for spring.

Answer 1

It was impossible to determine if this article was a prose or a micro-novel. Because the definition of online literature was not very strict, sometimes an article could be regarded as both prose and micro-fiction. Prose usually focuses on lyrical or narrative, focusing on the expression of emotions and artistic conception, while micro-novels pay more attention to the grasp of the plot and details, often showing profound thoughts and philosophy in a short space. However, the specific situation of this article still needed further understanding and analysis.
