irony not lost

Across from my work place is the main Cal Train station for the area. Like in so many other cities the industrial center becomes the place where all of the lost and left out people live. The gentrification of these urban places ensures that the mad wandering masses will have no where to go but the burbs who's traditional answer to the unwanted is to the imprison them. This NIMBY attitude has always really bothered me. How can anyone one of us claim superior morality over anyone when even just one of us is lost? Maybe thats why despite the financial difficulties I work at a non-profit that serves a part of that community.



I found this discarded record of Peter and The Wolf on my way to lunch one day. Passing the train yard and several makeshift vehicle/homes as I walked.



irony not lost.
