This homeless kid was diggin' the music I was playing on the street in Bangkok, so he indicated he wanted it. I had already seem him stand in the same position up the road earlier that day, for at least four hours, so I knew I was in for something different. He played a haunting melody, with a gag in his mouth he wailed and moaned. People heard noise and frowned, casting scornful eyes in his direction. I heard a bitter life on the streets.
