vagrant

a person who wanders about idly and has no permanent home or employment.
wandering or roaming from place to place, nomadic.
(of plants) straggling in growth.
neither fixed nor settled.

[where does the vagrant depart from the flaneur? where does one have purpose, the other, at once nomadic, idle, dilettante? one on a derive, the other lost.]
