Analysis of Hood Holyday
Jerry Wayne Lawrence, Jr. 1978 (Baton Rouge, Louisiana)
Tall & Fine Prostitute Offered Spiked Egg Nog By A Undercover FED.
D.E.A.D. Body Covered N X-Mas Tree Bristles.
Kids, With No Shoes On, Avoid The Green & Red Glass All Over The Ground.
Sound Of Gunshots & Sleigh Bells.
Yells Of Fussing Parents As It Snows.
Crack's High Got All The Fiends C-Ing Santa.
Aroma Of A X-Mas Marijuana. All The Weedheads Want 2 Do Is Carol On X-Mas Eve.
5 Fast Ladies Of The Same Hustler Wish 4 Gifts.
Spirits Of Those Killed During The Season Now Gaze @ Both Holly & Mistletoe.
Halo Overhead Of The Hand That Currently Helps The 'Hood.
