Heroin, China white, or just smack, took him into lost dreams and an altering of gritty reality Chasing the dragon, didn’t seem enough to balm a wounded psyche Losing to lust demons An iconic face of his late father A boy destined to see an assassination Shot at the hands, of Sirhan Sirhan Grief stricken is the neon nod, duji the catalyst that would...
