I was resting on a standpipe at White st while Dust bought some photo
paper
a little stooped Iralian man said
"that's a nice hat"
- a friend gave it to me to use today: I'm walking the whole length of
Broadway, I replied
"he cares about you a lot"
he said, smiling, eyes twinkling
"you're a strong man... in this heat... that's a nice hat"
and shuffled up the way...
