The homeless man
plopped down on the streetcar seat, looking relieved to have a place to rest. He covered his face with his hands and put his head down-- a little privacy in a frantic world. When he looked up I offered him a snack. Instead of speaking, he covered his face with his hands again and I was afraid I had been intrusive. But, no . . . I watched his fingers form a lovely heart-shape to thank me. |
