Utterly alone

[John Angulat]

Life is tough for street people.
Imagine having nowhere to go.
Everyday is the same.
Move, maybe try to find something to eat.
Move again to the forgotten places the forgotten seek.
...and on nights like tonight, when its realy cold you find a corner,
...and hope they'll let you stay a while.

Alone...utterly alone.

Powerful and touching image and text John, I find it very moving.

I worked for a couple of years with homeless teenagers here in the UK, and heard too many stories of abuse and drug addiction. Sleeping rough on the streets is something that shouldn't happen to anyone, but sadly it's universal and all too common.

My heart goes out to this gentleman, I hope someone gives him something to eat and a cup of tea, and also very important - a hug

What are you going to do with your shots of homeless people?

Hi Janet,
Thanks so much for the compliment, I really appreciate it.
I tried to give a response (and hopefully some insight) on Cem's thread this morning in the Layback Cafe. Please take a look if you get a chance.
