The Styrofoam Lady
Henan Province, China
Spring 2012
She walked and and down alleyways, chanting her arrival.
People would come out of their apartments and give her bits and pieces of
styrofoam. They would shove what they had somewhere on her pile. She would give them a few
small coins and move on to the next alleyway.
She walked these streets every day.
She looked to be about 70. She
never hurried. She walked methodically,
the same route she has taken for years past and years to come.
