Crazy Ramon
she said she knew some things about crazy ramon said he’d taken a liking to her and shown her something he wouldn’t show anyone else his texas driver’s license
his name isn’t really ramon she said he had an anglo name back in the states and wasn’t as old as he looked he was wanted by the f.b.i. or at least thought she’d be impressed if he told her that
the real estate offers he made to wary expats about town were no better than a good deal on the brooklyn bridge but he really did have acres of ill-gotten land outside town
he had a grown son they weren’t on speaking terms the last time they were together ramon had pointed a gun at him he had the biggest drug operation in town and he was wanted by every protestant vigilante in panajachel
everyone had business with crazy ramon and nobody wanted to know him
at least that’s what she told me about crazy ramon
