carbon copy
suburban bliss
grass stained
shoes haggard
smiles and beer
bellies which
defy gravity
the scent of
charcoal fluid
and overdone
meat mingling
with dog shit
and fresh sod

vacant stares
in a foreclosure
of americana
the over medicated
followers stand
guard around
the cult-de-sac
where dreams go
to kill themselves
fertilizer for
yellow lawns to
appease the hoa
