Day 27: Black Market Hot Sauce


Black Market Hot Sauce

They stand on corners whispering
Hot sauce. First taste free. We pass, shaking
our heads no, as that's how it all begins.
It's hard to turn down, yes, all that spice.
And everyone's doing it, right? What's up, 
the pusher saysWassabe? Nodding,you pull 
 two tens from you wallet.
