    In Memory Of...

    a hot summer night
    neighborhood buzzing w/ the sound of ice cream carts
    & the faint yells of "elotes"
    smells of asada on the grill
    & greens in the air
    "a real traffic jammer, a strong sexy hammer"
    the rumble of the bass & various trunk rattles fill the streets
    40's commin' 40's goin'
    good times turned sour as bad grapes
    in the blink of an eye life passes by
    "TRUCHA"
    "more bounce to the ounce"
    bang, bang, bang,
    "so ruff so tuff, out here baby"
    bang, bang, bang,
    a typical day in the east,
    angels & beasts
    victims of circumstance
    reality of the calle
    or beasts takin by angels, one would hope
    RIP GUS gone a long time but not forgotten
