> just have a conversation with a few people that are currently or were recently homeless

A couple decades ago in San Francisco, I used to host an open mic. One of the regulars was Keith Savage, a poet who would occasionally compose and perform appreciations of the other regulars who had moved him. He was so empathic, so good at capturing what people were trying to communicate and then reworking it and responding... he gave so many people a rich reward for being brave enough to take the open mic stage.

Keith happened to be homeless, though that's not the most important or interesting thing about him... Folks, if you exclude the homeless from your life, you may be missing out...
