Hermosa Beach!

Westwood-by-the-sea...
Built
On
Ruins
Of small beachside community.

From Local Surf Ghetto--
To Fraternity party!!!

Where is Dewey Weber or Greg “Da Bull” Noll?
Replaced by
Institutionalized Bar-Scene,
F-i-l-l-e-d with fashionable alcoholics

Where is no-pants-Lance posing nude on hood of 40’ ford

G Dick inside

Where is Purpus, Mike Purpus Running for Mayor?
18-yeaR-OLD SURF STAR TOWHEAD
Surf Lore Gone? Lost forever? Amongst Escalade spewing shitty one beat two step rap, rich whiteboy at helm!
surf lore Maybe recited religiously
at the Mermaid, PoopDeck?
Critters? Nah long gone....
rocking another hard rock...save the planet! strand bound! yeah!

No more sunny Beach Boys days!
All engulfed by the eastern seabound,
Traumatized by submission
Of AMBERCROMBIE and FITCH, GUESS, GAP!

SUV”s, Mercedes, Bmw’s Flash flash flood Hermosa Avenue
Trendy storefronts encroach,
Geckos, Mickey’s, Lone Survivors.....
Pier Avenue,
a
dashing
fashion runway
for
f-a-s-h-i-o-n-a-bl-e p-e-o-p-l-e

The sweet smell of Resin replaced
cement, stucko, paint, stench resonates!
Beach Bungalow Desecrated!
Martyred...crucified.....
memory and image, is nailed to condos, condos, condos

Juxtapostion is warfare
what is and what was
Old salty dawgs and their spawning
Blended into turmoil of contradiction
Offspring of Hermosian’s veins pulse with blood of Punk rock
underground
Majority of newcomers change.... Minority stays same

Hermosa.... lost to outsider
Profiting with Revenue--It’s own demise
Urbanization tubes
over
The City
Sunset triggers the decline.
tide!
Character gone
Rising with the
Dewey’s Dead
So is Hermosa
Immortalize him, a statue on 16th St.
Arms
Flailing
CUTBACK!

To the new inhabitants...
A seagull perching place...
Routinely kissed
by
By
By
Birdsh*t!
