I talked to the happy homeless man, who never reaches out his hand. Seen as sad by those who pass and thought to bear a damaged mind, because he does not possess the ability to perceive his own plight. He said he found great humor in the never ending nonsensical notions of important people doing important deeds amid the clutter of important things. I asked for an example He said, "Like... those who are LIVING wherever they may be... who sometimes wonder... "Where will I live? " He laughed Took my five dollars Gave me back two and told me to buy myself something nice. *** |

How interesting... The ending was nice, it made me think of kindness in all corners of the world, as we only see in dreams ~Lia |

"nonsensical notions of important people doing important deeds amid the clutter of important things." Yes, I guess many of us have nonsensical notions - we're conditioned that way perhaps. Enjoyed your write! Helen |
