Refuse In Chinese clothes — blouse buttoned at the shoulder, three-quarter pants, socks with cloth shoes — a tiny old Chinese woman leans into a shopping cart she pushes in the bike lanes. Dwarfed by a teetering mountain of clear and blue overstuffed bags, she collects herself from trashcans, keeps what’s funny to her, what she knows, to herself, with the plastic, about the value of aluminum and glass, about being the refuse of the decent. She is bent from taking her life with her everywhere.
