“But Florida dawgs, Orlando? I had that shit on lock for three years… three years. The only reason why I got touched was because of this white dude, Jamie. When you selling to white dudes, they ain’t grinding, they gonna shoot that shit. For two years dude was buying from me like clockwork, two or three g’s worth of heroin a week. When he got caught, all that nigga had to do was call me. I would have had his …

For the past three days I’d been secretly staying at the hostel. Going to bed at one, after Ali, the hostel’s owner, left, I’d wake up at six. Before Ali did the morning walk-through of the building, my friends that worked and stayed there, helped me sneak out through the fire escape. It was the afternoon.

Far as I know, that river has never ever flooded like this. According to WESH 2, the Feds declared Seminole county eligible for FEMA assistance. My heart goes out to everyone at home and the people in South Florida and The Keys.
Please note: Anything I write about Hurricane Irma is second hand, or from my Pops. I’m not in Orlando. I’m in Tokyo keeping a close eye on the storm. Over a week ago, Devin texted me, “Fuck climate change.” He lives in LA. The temperature was in the 100’s. “Yeah, weird times we live in,” I said. Hurricane Harvey was getting Biblical on Texas.
