"THE BONES OF THE HOMELESS WILL RISE TO HAUNT
THOSE THAT HAD CLOSED EYES"
by Judy Jones
I am a painter and only bought a camera to take photographs of
the homeless I see. One day as I was sitting in front of a store,
eating, a homeless man across from me had tears in his eyes.
It so overwhelmed me, I left my camera on the bench and never
bought another.
1. "THE BONES OF THE HOMELESS WILL RISE TO HAUNT THOSE THAT HAD
CLOSED EYES"
When I moved to San Francisco, seeing people eating out of garbage cans and
dying on the cold concrete streets made me sit down and weep. I watched as
people walked by, pretending not to see their Mother, Father, Sister and
Brothers in each soul crying for help. I prayed with my heart, soul, mind,
body and spirit to die before ever, ever accepting fellow beings eating out
of garbage cans and dying from our neglect. I asked to be guided to open
hearts thru sharing what I see.

2. "SEEING THRU THE EYES OF A CHILD"
I
felt like I was a child going up to this homeless man dying on the
street to take his picture. When I was very young, I loved everyone
and everything, not stopping for a moment to think of my own safety nor
motives. I only wanted to hug and love any lifeforce before me. The
person in this photograph is simply my brother asking for me to take
him in and love him.

3. "I LOVE YOU"
When I asked this homeless man if I could take his picture, he stared
into
my eyes and his gaze came so directly from his heart that I felt my
own opening as if pierced by an arrow. Yes, I will continue each
moment I breath, to share with everyone the homeless I see dying on the
streets all over the earth.

4. "I AM HUNGRY"
Would I be this polite if I were starving? The poor are wonderful people. They are 'Saints in the Making' because they put up with us walking by ignoring their pleas for help.

5. "HE'S MY BROTHER"
As I looked into his eyes, our hearts met and
I silently promised I would spend my every
waking moment getting help for him.
