moving day .. got up early, really early
dragged kilo and frenchman out of bed
we had my grandmother eva and vernon
moved in well before noon .. lunch time
she was planting peppers and tomatos
little travel trailer kilo, frenchman and I rented
was kind of in a wooded .. safe area in winnie
donald and the two ex-cons were still out there
i'm quite sure they were searching for me
I didn't hide yet I wasn't showing my face
i'd already planned to leave hellhole winnie, texas
wasn't about to watch over my shoulder every day
had to get frenchman and kilo set up before I left
hardest part was having to break it to alline
she cried and cried .. went on and on
reassured her i'll be ok and she will be too
she just couldn't hardly believe crazy donald
was out to get me for continuing to see her
she knew him personally her whole life
somehow .. finally she got the big picture
i'd parked my car behind our small house
didn't want all of my windows broken out
related to alline i'll be back to winnie asap
when .. if things will ever cool down
she said please don't see dolly again
related to her I wouldn't .. i'll leave dolly alone
kissed, hugged .. was on the highway that night
driving in the midnight hour I was at a loss
realizing i'm running from a death threat
after an attempted hit .. calmed me none
feeling as if i'd nothing to lose
fired up my sinsimilla filled pipe
had an iced down twelve pack of beer
drank a glass of four ounces shroom juice
man, I was set .. cranked up the f.m. radio
something told me I maybe should've waited
to drink the shroom juice .. I love a challenge
challenged .. because i'd gotten so lost
hallucinaing .. tripping out of my mind
eyes burning .. popped wide open
sunshine burning .. directly in my face
woke up on the gulf of mexico .. wondering how
