This story is about, Lawrence - an old man who has been burned by life and just wants to be left alone. That all changes when Lawrence witnesses the gang beating of a troubled teenage boy named Dshea Williams. The last thing the old man wants is to get involved, but his deeper character, and an admonition from a ghost of his past to "Make it right," forces his hand.From that moment on, life changes for both men. Eventually we see that the mysterious old recluse has lived a very different, and somewhat epic, life from the man who now sits on the porch and watches the trains go by.
