....

I saw a homeless man sitting in the snow by the river today. It happened so fast, I was riding the train and just as it went over a bridge I saw him, just for a glimpse. He had a long beard, he may have been rocking back and forth in a chill. He was shrouded and hidden in a forest of willow. The water underneath him frozen. There might have been someone he was talking to, but I didn't see. The glimpse passed so quickly.
