Anthropology of an Alley
Power Aid.
Crack pipes.

55 for LIVE!

(someone was beaten
with a rubber hose back here
and left their bottle of bleach
for dead)

Discarded toiletry
containers, used tampon
applicators

Smells- like rotten tomatoes
and pineapple Jumex.

(this is actually a really
good spot, no wonder
they come here to
get stoned)


(no, they don't. THEY come
back here to smoke crack,
skate & destroy,
fuck love & eat crow)

Then it's all
dirty feathers,
broken glass,
double X's
& too much time
behind Food City.
