There's a Park Person in All of Us

I used the Kapiolani Park bathroom by the tennis courts while a man outside experiencing homelessness and mental collapse was wailing about something. Another person, most likely experiencing homelessness too, was also overwhelmingly experiencing impatience. He yelled at the other guy to “shut up!”. I held the broken door shut while trying to hold my shorts up, simultaneously wiping myself clean. Between the three of us, we lost our dignity in that moment.

Holy shit, the real world is real.
