gemini hood (ode to the mission)
(san francisco, 2015)
i'm not really feeling it
when they call you "the mish"
you are "la misión"
barrio de mi corazón
"mish" sounds too much like "mush"
& you are not a fondue melting pot
you are a muffin tin
with each compartment
its own flavor
why are mission & valencia streets
so different? they're just
1 block over: gemini hood
1 twin wants to take over
but 2 brothers will
fight once in a while though
anyway
tension between 2 streets
drama between peace & domination
peace is never submissive
never backs down
