he doesn't eat breakfast and
he is losing his hair,
he bets on soccer matches during the breaks and
he became terrified of having children and death at age twelve,
he wears a t-shirt that reads "blaze kush" and
he has 14 siblings,
he wants to become chief and
he likes his beer cold,
he wakes up at 3:30 every morning to get here on time and
he laughs deep from within his big belly,
he spent four years in prison for brutalizing a police officer and
he promises her that she is the girl of his dreams on the phone,
he still lives at his parents place and
he stopped drinking but not smoking,
he walks with a bit of a limp and
he has a tongue piercing,
he lowers his head and does the work all while he is learning
to fit in.
