I like how this captures a moment.

Rush-hour intersection, red light, cars stop.
Old or middle-aged beat man stands,
clothes in tatters, transparent threads,
unfolds cardboard literature,...........................................A succinct and well painted scene.
eyes glazed to beg in black letters to the blue and white
collar drivers on cell phones, air conditioning..........................so like "collar drivers".
He signs between the lines of cars,
murmuring troll or father, thirst.........................................Just drop in "thirst" like that - very cool.
Ladies lock their doors. Men look the other way
until the light turns green and cars drive away...........................and so the moment is gone. The circle closed.
just now witnessing some influence from DA. pesky subconscious..
