Secret Basement Lab Alphabet: U is for UNDERWORLD GROTESQUE



U is for UNDERWORLD GROTESQUE

He didn’t use no stoolies, this guy. Word on the street is he’s paid double—sometimes triple what the other trail guys get. He’s got a natural gift for picking up a scent, see. His nickname’s The Schnoz. He turned a defect into a goldmine, he did. His real name? No matter. No one’s used it for so long, kind of like a ghost that might haunt his mailbox on occasion, that’s all. Ain’t no one who used it to his face lived long enough to pass it on anyhow.

Most guys got a head they work for. Not The Schnoz; he’s strictly freelance. And he always gets his guy. So, buddy, if you says this guy is on your dust, I’d find a nice plane to jump outta, somewhere between here and Hong Kong, and maybe, you don’t die in the fall, you could be safe for a few years.
