WHO NEEDS A DEVIL WHEN YOUR NEIGHBOR WILL DO?

I searched for some escape route

but found none because there's nowhere else be here


so I lie down and close my eyes

and hope when they get me I won't feel too sharply


the breaking of my bones

at the pounding of their clubs and ax handles


these 'good decent' citizens who'll run you to ground

if you don't undergo their lobotomy
