1999 “Don’t be doing nuffin’ stupid, y’all ain’t tryna die, right? Gon get me killed alongside yo stupid ass. Now what was you doing before you got here? When I was taken or whateva, I was doing some white lady’s nails: emerald green, metallic, like a beetle. I was just about to finish up when I gone poofed outta reality; The X Files style, Mulder ’n Scully. I was like, y’all - I don’t need this today. I ain’t even got that bish to pay for her shit! Man, I was doing well in life; I didn’t get knocked up, I had my own business but now I’m stuck here wit you, I ain’t cut out for this typa hustle. Nuh uh, don’t talk, just listen; keep the windows ‘n doors closed at night, ok, don’t invite nobody in or they gon turn you inside out, y’hear me? Them things, whatever you wanna call em, they already done chewed up the last curious muthafuckas that be sticking they heads out. Is you that kinda cat? Cause I don’t associate myself with no heroes. I intend to leave this place wit my head intact.” • The Slice Theater • BRTN ST 24/7 • Cafe Voyage • The Silver Tongue • $1WASH • Cash&Keepsakes • Richard’s
