He has no contact with anyone from his past and the friends that he has are few and they tend to drift in and out of his life. “I’ve been homeless for six years now. If there’s such a thing as an effective homeless man, then I suppose I’m effective. Being homeless is probably the only thing I’ve ever been good at (Troyer, 2008). The poverty can be greatly associated with the friends that Jackson keeps. According to the text, according to Alexie (2003)
Creative Writing The old man sits in his same old position outside the bar, slumped over like a fallen tree. He begs for more of his precious drink as the rain showers down his long greasy hair. His dirty hands clasp a bottle of cheap wine. Dark grey eyes look sadly over a broken nose. A wine-stained newspaper cutout in the drunk man's lap is the only reminder of his days on the field, the glory of his past washed away by a flood of liquor. In the man's pocket, hidden away from sight is another
slower ones seem not to care or notice. Some stop to give a homeless man with a sign money, and others tell him to go get a job and to stop robbing people blind. The man sits there, and starts to tear up. If you ask him, he’ll tell you why he’s there, and it surely isn’t to rob people of their money. I can’t believe how rude people can be. Then you might see people singing and playing instruments, getting more money than the homeless man. The way the world is today makes
“There's a story behind every face.” This line made me remember a particular face: the face of the man at the end of the alley. The man at the end of the alley is homeless, or was homeless. He moved away at the end of last year. He was a tall black guy with knotted hair, a beanie and fingerless gloves. Every morning on my way to school while driving past him, my grandfather and I would wave goodbye to the man until he disappeared as we rounded the corner. Everyday we would wave again when I returned

Even reacted like the good old man that want to call the police on the barter that want to take the money way from the homeless man. Why? Because the homeless man actor was not do any wrong their the

father and husband, he became a homeless man with no accompaniment. The money in his bank account could support him temporarily but not for long. He needed help, but no one was there to even calm him down. Every night, he goes back to his rented dark room with bare hands holding a piece of bread. Lying on his straw bed, memories of his family and children flash through his brain; no more family times and laughs. That explosion had destroyed all of the happiness. A man doesn’t cry easily, but he cannot
During the 1980s', homelessness was a long-existing problem that Americans choose to avoid rather than facing it. It was such common to run into strangers with smokey-grey hairs, timeworn faces, and scruffy clothes. For the first time one sees a homeless, an uncomfortable feeling comes when four eyes meet. One quickly looks away and can still feel that someone is watching. To avoid the haunted look in the stranger's eyes, one increases the walking speed and turns in a direction of the nearest crowd

was a man who owned a large house with a lush vegetable garden in the front yard. During the night, a homeless man snuck onto his property and began to pick carrots to eat out of the garden. The homeless man, hunger fulfilled, decided to live in the owner's garden shed and hide in fear of being caught by the owner. In the morning, the owner checked his crop and noticed the missing carrots, but disregarded it, at first, though it was his only source of produce. Over time passed, the homeless man would
lose.” Los Angeles, California On a typical bus stop, on a typical city street, there is a not so typical man.This man, somewhere in his mid-thirties possible could be younger, but time has not been good to him. He lies asleep on a typical bus stop bench; wearing a ripped overcoat and a pair of badly torn pants. His hair uncombed and begs to express itself in every direction known to man. Small annoying holes riddle the extremely worn soles of his shoes. A developing beard shadows his face as he rests;
alley, so he went to investigate. When he reached the alley he saw an old homeless man being robbed by a bunch of thugs. Jimmy stepped into action. He yelled “Stop, be... before I call the police!”. One thug rushed Jimmy and punched him in the stomach and then the rest of the thugs jumped in on the beating.

One sunny day on the busy streets of Chicago, a homeless man walked down the sidewalks scowling at nearby street peddlers. He went by the name of Richard Walker, better known as Rich, which was very ironic. He walked down the sidewalks through different people, catching sections of their conversation. “Look at Rich! Don’t give that old homeless man any money!” Although Rich was well used to it, didn’t mean he took it lightly at all. He worked at a nearby junkyard. It was an absolute horrid place
“That… that patch where you got that patch?” James looked at him and said,” what difference is it of yours?” John mumbled to himself, “Devil Dogs, the freaking Devil Dogs… I don’t believe it!!!” The homeless man looked at him, and yelled, “What do you know of the Devil Dogs?” The homeless man began to pace back and forth, as if something was bothering him badly.

Then he spoke “We don’t oblige your kind here.” “Get out before you’re stench scares more regulars away.” “Ok.” the man said as he walked
arm with as I navigate the LA streets. I envy the young man wiping out on his skateboard. Look at the concern on the young woman’s eyes. She looks on with a frown. Still, he makes her laugh with his imitation of the Zombie’s walk. How much happiness is contained in the rivulets of his blood that hardens along the shin of his wounded kneecap? What thoughts have I tonight, walking the LA streets that are east of LAX. There is the homeless man with his Macy’s shopping bag. He looks at me as if he’s
The warm sun feels nice as the heat beats off my skin as I stroll down the sidewalk. I just keep walking thinking of what choices in life have led me to this point I’m at now. My father was a military man and growing up we switched schools every 3 months as he was stationed all over the country. It becomes rough on a kid never having any true friends because of the constant change, but I soon got used to it. I feel not having any childhood friends led
Running down the street, the man held back a sob. He wasn’t prone to crying, but today was an exception. The man’s name was Max. Running, running, running away was all the 12 year old could think of. After witnessing his brother's death, he couldn’t bare staying any longer at the funeral. I wonder where I’ll go, he thought. He pondered the thought of going to a big city but he was only 12. Maybe a not so big city, like Hanahan. Yes that’s where I’ll go. Hanahan was a small city about half an hour
