Bags under the eyes
of the foulest smell
Indisposed at the moment
can't reach the hinge
to that place we call
earth, next door

Open it up
Wrap, Rip, Recycle
Tires to Sneakers
All for transportation
She quietly whispers,
Return them all,
each innocent lamb,
chocolate covered,
or not,
to the place we call
earth, next door.

They are all eating
juice dripping down
Drunken Faces.
No innocence can be found here
even after considerable sifting
for We are americans
proud inhabitants of
earth, next door
