Rivulets in the Crows Feet

This morning, Jasper and I arrived at a street corner at the same time as a handsome man in his 30s. The man wore a cap and was carrying a thermos. He appeared to be walking to work.

I looked at the man's face and realized that rivulets of blood were flowing through the laugh lines and crows feet around his eyes. Apparently just out of sight there was a large wound on his forehead.

And so, the man walked off, as did Jasper and I. Just another day in the neighborhood.
