not know his name even if in the area know him a bit 'all (at least, all who take the train): he is homeless Station Nomentana. "homeless" in this case is a misnomer, because he is a little if the roof is built on its own, for many years now that I see in hut its "protected" from the network that bounds the station: in the morning preparing breakfast for her gas stove, it shaves and washes in the tank in a plastic bucket (even when outside is -3 °) and then go out for his rounds. He's been there for years, does not talk to anyone, do not bother anyone, if they have no interest in social services (I think) and an occasional commuter willing to go shopping. Sometimes carving messages in large print, corrugated cardboard or polystyrene, messages for those who pass the station hung up the fence of "his" space.
A Christmas gives his best.
These recycled decorations, which could be called "eco-friendly" with a period Very stylish, appeared a bit 'at a time from December 8 onwards, breaking a smile more than a sullen travelers.
I do not know what is the lesson we should learn from all this, but I'm sure there is one. Good
2011.
