Introducing a short story of fiction, The Bucket Man is my initial creative piece on a cultural theme: homeless people. The idea originated while passing a homeless hangout on my commute - the site is actual and stands between a small creek, Walmart parking lot, a raucous suburban intersection, with a hospital just up the road.
Robbie Raine, our main character, is a homeless man with sensibilities, imagination, history and most importantly, hope for the future. The short story is told from his perspective as memories weave together with other homeless characters including one from the "good clean people" - who has a hidden story of his own.
