Animal 2
“ZO-POUND, SAT ON the bench in front of Building 3150 of the General Grant Houses, sipping a cup of coffee and reading a newspaper that was spread across his lap. The temperature had dipped, so he was huddled in a camouflage army jacket with the matching cap, which he wore pulled low over his eyes. Zo was a handsome young man, with cocoa skin and a near-perfect smile. He could’ve easily been a male model, but instead, he walked the path of a dope boy. He was a lieutenant in King James’s army.
A ...few yards away, a young cat served the occasional fiend who wanted to get a morning blast. Normally, there would’ve been a constant flow of addicts creeping back and forth to buy drugs, but in light of recent events, it was slow motion. As the saying went, the block was hot.
Two years before, if you’d told Zo that he’d be back on the streets, in the thick of the bullshit, he’d have called you a liar. After his first prison bid, he came back into society a changed man. He hustled his way up to an assistant manager position at the supermarket he was working at and successfully put his old life behind him.MoreLess
