When he was a young man, he studied hobo signs chalked on railroad cars, mailboxes, fences, buildings in barn yards, in towns he probed. Signs that said “doubtful”, “mean dog”, “be ready to defend yourself”, “dirty jail”, or “nothing doing here” sent him away or might draw him closer to investigate. He was a harvest hobo, following the crops in the West. Once beaten senseless, and left to die in a Fresno alley. They laughed when they punched and kicked him, stealing his knapsack and his kit. The beating injured his brain. He was never the same. He lost all inhibitions and good judgment. He couldn’t remember what rows to pick when he picked grapes in Visalia and oranges in Porterville. He lost track of time, and had to write everything down. He made little sketches so he could find his way back to his box under the railroad bridge. At night, he played his harmonica until he dropped into dreams of his days as a boy or his job with the city. He dreamt of the beautiful woman that gave him a whole pie when he begged for food at her door. He dreamt of the old, black man that looked into his eyes for a long time before tears came. The old man saw himself in his eyes. He saw a man with even less than himself, and it was more than he could endure. The hobo impressed the dirt path in front of the man’s simple cottage with a new mark – a mark never seen before. It was an austere eye, a large tear in both corners, made with polished pebbles and shells he carried in his pack.
