Neighbors
We fucked ourselves
screwed the pooch
prayed to the god of money
showered us with love and praise
in the land of milk and honey
we waited and we waited
for the coins to fall
from a sky of amber waves
thought dancing with the devil
would get us what we need
the walls been breached
your souls been sold
for gold and rotted seed
i look to my neighbor
think to myself
does he bleed the way i bleed
shame on you shame on me
maybe it’s time for shame to leave
it’s my neighbor again
he’s burst through the door
i guess he comes to see








Powerfully penned, Bat. Another excellent write with lots of layers my friend. Amazing read as always. Appreciate you.
