The reality that politicians do not want to show us, visible in their streets, forgotten in their minds ...
Привыкай же, душа, усыхать по краям,
Чтобы этой ценой выбираться из ям...
........
О сужайся, сожмись, забывая слова,
Предавая надежды, сдавая права,
Усыхай и твердей, ибо наша задача —
не считая ни дыр, ни заплат на плаще,
не любя, не зовя, не жалея, не плача,
Под конец научиться не быть вообще.
/Дмитрий Быков/
Yes, he has some money in his hands, which he counts, but he is poor, old and sick. No, he's not a bum who lives at the train station. He personifies millions worthy of sympathy and help. The photo was taken on the territory of the food court, where there are many different cafes, but the amount of money in his hands is not enough even for a cup of coffee and a bun.
Virginia back roads. Yikes! Not sure about the blending with the picture and framing....but oh well! :-0

Of old age, degeneration and bit's falling off left, right and centre.....
Interesting also the location for some scenes filmed for a recent Channel 4 comedy drama - The Curse!
Wahrscheinlich die mächtigste Linde in der Gegend. Und völlig gesund! Was hat dieser Baum schon alles gesehen?
Probably the mightiest lime tree in the area. And completely healthy! What has this tree already seen?
Your nose can grow for three reasons: 1. old age, 2. distorted perspective when (as here) photographed with a wide-angle lens, and 3. when you, as frequently happens to a particular prime minister, are "ambushed by a cake".
Vous marchiez devant moi dans l’étroite ruelle, un pigeon roucoulait, et le cri des martinets vrillait le ciel d’été.
Malgré votre grand âge, la canne semblait n’être pour vous qu’une coquetterie, qu’une concession farfelue accordée en souriant au temps qui passe. Votre vénérable silhouette illuminait délicatement l'instant suspendu.
En vous voyant, j’ai compris qu’à marcher dignement on va vers la lumière.
Je vous salue, Madame, et je vous remercie.

During lock down, I tried my hand at something new; digital painting. This portrait is of a person from a remote village in Sri Lanka.

old age is a drag.

In his old age, Tyler has not wanted to cuddle much or sleep in our bed due to either physical discomfort or nighttime restlessness.
When it happens, it’s the best feeling ever. ❤️
Old age isn't the only root cause for decay. A good dose of a coastal climate significantly adds to the aging process.
San Mateo County Coast CA
A body in motion
Translating sound into
Action, stepping bowing
Then momentarily,
She flies.
A perfect, graceful sight
Muscles taut, try to keep
Pace with a mind, that
Not even gravity
Can corrupt.
Her torso sculpted by
Dedication, passion,
Anger and pain, so that
She may perhaps go on
To fly again.
Floating through the air like
Water, black and sombre;
But she dies in the end,
Old age clipping her wings

Looking Back 100 Years.
The Somme, WW1.
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
Nice clean shot of the Frostburg Station and 1309. If you give the engineer 25 dollars to blow the whistle and sound like it is ready to leave everyone quickly clears the area and boards the train. So I fibbed a bit, shot shortly before the Frostburg Flyer returns to Cumberland.
