my beautiful father died last night.
when i was growing up, my pop would work hard every day to provide for us -
his four kids and my mother.
he would come home, slip into his corduroy slippers, and lounge back
in his recliner in the living room. moments later, he'd be snoring softly.
this happened every day for years and years.
it's my favorite memory.
it was a constant and comforting thing that he was home
and peaceful, enjoying his nappy.
i Know he is enjoying his nap now too.
i love you, Pop.
be safe,
and journey with all our Love.

Enjoy the little things,
for one day you may look back and
realize they were the big things.

I am wandering along the pedestrian mall. I am hungry. There is food all around me—vendors and restaurants. When I approach these places, I am shooed away. Looking down, I quietly ask a hot dog vendor, “How would you feel about giving me a hot dog, sir?” He says, “I’d love to, dear. Sometimes we all have to ask for help. It’s not easy. I’ve had to ask before. Don’t be afraid.” He touches my hand. The moment before his mercy is so different from the moment after.

Behind the cut is a transcript of my conversation with homeless youth, Ghost (aged 21),
on the subject of dumpster-diving which he is well known for amongst the homeless
street youth in Seattle.
