this is kenny. he is one of the many homeless in downtown seattle. i saw him squatting one day with his sign asking for money and i went and squatted next to him. i told him my name was katia and he told me his name was kenny. i told him he was beautiful. i didn't lie. he is beautiful to me. he said no, i'm not. i said yes. he said no. i said well, i see beauty when i look at you. he said how could this be? i said it be. he smiled and his eyes twinkled. i'm not lying - they twinkled. i gave him some money and asked if i could take his photo, could i make a frame of his beautiful face? yes. and then we hugged and i kissed hi
