Chakas writing on the wall

Paris Thomas 1977 (California)

Narrative
Chakas writing on the wall
Someone in San Pedro is talking to themselves
The American government will leave you destitute and poor if you’re an immigrant
The face of Mother Earth ever so slowly changing as Father Time stops to check his watch. The weather lady is wearing a tight dress Question mark ? and the Mysterians!
