Six Black Dudes on a Bus

I had gotten out of jail not ten minutes before I committed another crime. The joint's worth of weed was taped to the inside of my pants leg, small enough not to be noticed when I was patted down upon admittance to the Marion County, Indiana Juvenile Detention Center. I was very lucky, I knew, for them not to have found it for the few days I was locked away. I was just thankful to …

When I got in I couldn't find the pipe, so instead I gave him a lighter with a marijuana leaf on it that I knew didn't work. We exchanged thanks and I went inside to start looking through the paper for another job, and found a joint's worth of weed sitting inconspicuously atop my dresser.
