high school drug dealers/ and the queens of the crack heads

I guess I'm going to skip around a bit in the things I share with you regarding street life and drugs. We had a row in Philly and our street was actually one of the nicer one but like in all communities we had a few boys on the block that sold drugs. I had been clean a couple of months and then had the itch one evening after work. I sought out one of these kids. His name was Dupreem. He hooked me real good and we developed quite a relationship. Well, Dupreem ran with a couple other boys ,Coop and Bee. Well, one morning we wanted some crack so we called Coop and he said he was in the middle of class but as soon as lunch break and he'd come bring us our stuff. WHAT????? Class? Lunch break? You are in school? The very young man that sells me crack by the 8-ball every week is a high school student???? Wow. I remember one cold-ass Philadelphia winter night those poor boys came to our house just looking to come in out of the cold. Even though we paid them mega money for the drugs we were addicted to they had no money, all that money went to a man named Man. They might have been out working all day selling dope to addicts but at the end of their day, if it actually ever did have an end, these boys didn't really make any money. They came to our house to shower, wash their clothes, eat, rest. We felt bad for them. I took poor Coop home to his place in West Philly one morning. Now I know why he always smelled bad. There was no electricity, no running water, no heat. His Mom was dead and he lived with a relative that was probably on drugs, I don't remember. What tiny money he made he used to buy his little sister food. I've been clean for about 4 years now and Lisa got murdered. I feel bad for Coop , I wonder whatever happened to him. It doesn't much matter, now does it? Me and my wife owned our own painting business and made mega money. It's a shame we didn't invest that money, instead we smoked every last cent. Of course we had all the finer things and we lived like Queens. The Queens of the crackheads.
