In every city there are lives that move quietly through the streets.

Dogs who belong to no one and everyone at once. They sleep in sunlight, wait beside empty benches, and learn the language of pavement, shadow and kindness.

Printed on premium matte paper, these black-and-white film photographs and the poems alongside them offer small moments of witness: a pause in the passing crowd, a reminder that dignity can live anywhere the light chooses to fall.

The silent plea to stay from those called Stray.
