Triple Cross Tijuana smells like mad poet reefer Like the sweet olfactory rhyming debriefer Triple Cross one of you; a game of thrones collusion Stabbing you in the back promising the ponzi scheme illusion Coming down from a decade of detox Mules channeling obnoxious poetry CNN & Fox Crystal meth, Mary Jane, and Disney Snow White Hash, poppy, heroin, and opioid courier's delight None too happy with poets Severed heads, fingers, and toe bits Mexico drug Lord El Mencho in collusion with Pablo Tijuana cartel turf rival prison Escobar ring El Chapo Aware you're on his brand and HIS payroll to you Zero Which one, or two is Ego writing checks his Body offshore can't cash The brutal Rise of El Mencho Copyright August 27, 2021 Sage Sweetwater https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-features/the-brutal-rise-of-el-mencho-196980/ “We’ve seen it become very bloody, and a lot of people attribute that to El Mencho himself,” says Scott Stewart, a senior cartel analyst at Stratfor, a private intelligence firm. “Wherever they try to muscle in, it creates bodies.” "Mencho has also displayed a savagery that’s extreme even by narco standards. For the admittedly brutal Chapo, killing was a necessary part of business. For Mencho, it seems more like sadism as public spectacle. There have been mass killings, such as the 35 bound and tortured bodies dumped in the streets of Veracruz."

A brutal reminder. Why so many south of the border are trying to reach the promised land north of Central America. It is interesting, however, when you trace the money. It is right here in the good old, rich or poor, United States of America that seems to have an insatiable desire for escapism and the drugs that provide it.

If everyone just stopped buying and using. The cartels would disappear from lack of revenue.

I really love this one for its brutal honesty. Keep on writing this stuff. It hurts, but it works.

Release El Chapo and let the two gangs fight each other to the ground, then the police will walk in to reap their bodies. - That's how the Chinese police would do to deal with the drug lords and gangs.
