PLO PLO
The human rot caused by the drug has no limits. It does not know age, gender and social status. This is not intimidated if it is traversed in the life of an intellectual person, a politician, a worker or a school girl. The addiction to drugs, to this drug in particular, does not waver, does not reward consumer singers with a history, doesn´t pity single mothers. If it catches you, you stay; as many have remained in a populous neighborhood of Guayaquil in Ecuador where crack swarms and explodes every time the wick ignites the sound of the so-called PLO PLO. Every spark of burned rock, each rock keeps a different story of a different person that with great possibility will end up wandering the same path.
In search of the necessary daily dose that forces them in their greatest cases to make a living by stealing or by chamberos (garbage collectors) to sustain their vice, a drug that has entered the country very recently and has already earned the life of many.
