a temporary life

i really like this photo.

yesterday while riding towards the north part of the city in a taxi, the arterial we needed to take was blocked. there was police tape, cops on motorcycles, and the crime scene van. everyone was rubbernecking out their windows to the right. as we slowly rolled past what everyone was looking at, my stomach dropped. lying in the middle of the street was a dead man, probably an unlucky pedestrian. His torso was torn and his guts leaking onto the street. just lyiing there in the middle of the street, no blanket covering him or anything.
it was the first time in my life i'd seen a dead person.
