Have you ever been to London and walked along the Embankment down by the Houses of Parliament to Westminster Bridge.

Across the bridge lies the Festival Hall and on that walkway some of the wonderful street entertainers stalls and artists that grace the city. By day this is a passageway of entertainment, displays and artistry.
By night, the city gives way to the dregs of humanity, as the people from cardboard city open their newspaper covered box coffins to dance in displays of poverty and neglect. One of the last things that they do just before the dawn edges its way back into the day is to huddle by the burger van to collect the last free roll of the night, their last taste of sustenance before they return to their cardboard city to shut themselves away from another day.
