There is
a dark side to life on the street. People in this condition are fairly
common. This is despair, hopelessness, the outward manifestation of a
life without any future.
Shortly after I took
this picture some other folks on the street began to gather. Soon a group
of eight people surrounded this poor soul to do what they could to help.
The help consisted of giving a lot of water to drink and making sure the
police didn't discover another drunk on the street. Arrest and jailing
would surely follow.
Their care was tender
and without revulsion. This was a sick person and was treated as such.
