Today I saw a homeless man curled up in a dark corner drinking a bottle of beer. I saw three Chinese men walking passed, I couldn't hear what they were saying but I'm sure they were complaining about the cold.
I saw two men stranded by the side of the road, one white one black, yet no passersby offered to help as they drove past. I saw a man and a boy, the father carried a loaf of bread and the son carried a small bottle of milk, they were talking about spaghetti and mince. I saw a man crossing the street aimlessly walking without a goal or destination, he's eyes fixed on the ground. I saw an old truck driver whistling at a scantily dressed woman who crept out of the darkness. I saw a blue light brigade speeding off in the distance, I passed an eerie looking building, the lights were on but nobody was home. Today I saw all these people, and I wonder if any of them saw me...
