Asasdas

Asasdas Psese at Place de Clichy. I did not learn much about the man as our encounter was brief. He was an enigmatic, almost divine figure who could have easily been from another time. Dressed like a wealthy Parisian but seemingly homeless, he appears in my memory as this image shows him, a wise man well versed in the tragedies of life, looking to the future with a slight solemn smile for the weary road ahead. Knowing that ultimately, it will all be okay in the end. I regret not helping him more, but I suppose his immortalisation in this image gives more justice than anything else within my power.
