Junot Díaz - The Brieg Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao (excerpt M) lyrics

Oscar was sure that he was being beaten by three men, not two, that the faceless man from in front of the colmado was joining them. Toward the end, as all life began to slip away, Oscar found himself facing his abuela; she was sitting in her rocking chair, and when she saw him she snarled, What did I tell you about those putas? Didn't I tell you you were going to die? And then finally Grod jumped down on his head with both his boots and right before it happened Oscar could have sworn there was a third man with them and he was standing back behind some of the cane but before Oscar could see his face it was Good Night, Sweet Prince, and he felt like he was falling again, falling straight for Rout I8, and there was nothing he could do, nothing at all, to stop it.
