In this part of town, not even the law shows face. We own this territory, taking it swiftly at a young age. Two boys, left on the street to fend for themselves at the ripe age of twelve. Our mother was a crack whore, strung out and fucked daily to keep us fed, until one of her John’s killed her in bed. She stole, and that’s a big no-no. Even my brother and I knew not to steal from what feeds. Dumb bitch got greedy, biting the hand that fed.
