Many years ago, I was in my car eating lunch at Rally burger in Detroit. I saw an old man about 10 feet in front of me writing on a cup for several minutes oblivious that I was there. After he was done writing, he wedged the cup in the rubbish bin flap looked up to the sky and defiantly shook his fist and left. The entire cup is covered with his writing, and on the very bottom he wrote his name and birthday. Not sure if he had dementia, could be. I was fascinating to read the disconnect bits of his life.

Alex, great that you've regained and has captured this cup full of 'proza', so giving us the possibility to decipher the intriguing text on it.
He must have been either brilliant or having dementia. In the first case it's necessary to decrypt his wisdom, but in the latter case he's in need for help.
Good manic Monday post, my friend.

Try to change what you can't accept, but accept what you can't change. Please CLICK HERE to see my journal! Feel free to save my images or to add them to your favorites.
thats cool! only in Detroit! its most interestng in the fact he wrote it, then did what he did. i wonder if he knew you were watching and anticipated your next move, sitting around the corner laughin.
i might have to do something like this just to see peoples reaction and what they do...lol
on a different note, the poor fellow probably had issues. which is sad :(
its pretty cool you captured the cup! most interesting find!!

I wonder if life stops to have a cigarette after it screws me?
I am sure he is deceased now, probably no long after this happen in 1989. It was interesting to see how these random scribbles meant something significant to him. One more note. On the very bottom of the cup he wrote: "Born 2-7-1914 Beateruae Pennsylvania Retired Age 76."

Long before the white man and long before the wheel, when the dark green forests were too silent to be real. Lightfoot 1967

Very unique, and really a very touching story behind this. It makes us all ponder the why of it. You captured a brilliant moment in time in my opinion, now if we only knew the rest of story. Fascinating post Alex, and perfect for Manic Monday. Maybe you could turn the cup ad post another version of this, so we can read more of what he wrote. I do see that murdered is mentioned maybe he lost a loved one? tigs=^..^=

Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life and so is my love of photography. sandi ♪ ♫
He was not dement but mentally a bit unstable I would say. Good photo of this paper cup with all his confused thoughts - even if it was in 1989.
