Homeless

• Aged by the outdoors, his face and his car, the two of them equally weathered.
• Shaved head, dusty green dress shirt untucked, khaki corduroys, brown loafers with holes.
• Weathered skin, dirty boots, dirty jeans, dirty jacket.
• I was homeless for a different reason.
• After they were expelled from the sober house they lived in her car...
• Her gratitude for hot showers.
• Asleep in her car...
• It was easy to predict he would be the first to fall...
• We promised to search for him, but, we forgot.
• Tourette's.
• Back on the street.
• "The most important things in the world..."
• She moved from the old apartment and forever after I felt homeless.
• Homeless.
