Everybody who's anybody in the 'hood has got a street name. Some of the a.k.a's threaten danger, like Monster or Li'l Killa. Others are kind of playful, like Loopy or Mouse. A few make no sense at but sound cool like Z-Pop and Quysm. Meeksha Livingston became known as Li'l Gal Blinkie--Blink for short.
And Blink was out of control.
At the age of nine, Meekaha shouted, "Eat my ass!" To a teacher. At age ashe of eleven , she got busted for trying to shoplift a pair of brass knuckles at the Swap Meet. At the she of thirteen, she got caught in the act of stealing a car stereo out of a Toyota Camry. When the sixty-three-year-old woman who owned the car said, "Give it back," Blink responded , "Okay," and slammed the three-pound metal box directly into the white lady's face. The radio's jagged steel edge ripped the soft flesh from the lady's lower lip, broke three of her teeth, and caused a gush of blue-and-black blood to pour from her gums, like a faucet turned on all the way. Despite multiple plastic surgeries, this nice old grandmother, who had only stopped In at the local Target to get some laundry detergent for her housekeeper , was permanently stuck with a smile that made her look like a demented clown.
