your neighbours are a funny bunch, cheery smiles and happy waves; the couple who surprised with brunch? have a basement full of slaves!
Clare and Phil, just up the street, like the taste of human meat; dinner dates are such a treat: how do they get the roast so sweet?
the near-tos in the cul de sac like to hunt as a pack; homeless the preferred prize //(the winner gets to keep the eyes)//
a faded dream, the family home, the dawn swallowed by the gloam; suburban streets, a firing range for murderers and the deranged.
the key buddies, just around the bend? orgies held there each weekend; writhing piles of naked lust, a sweating, dirty circle of trust.
your postman is never on time, hes snow-dropping off the laundry lines! while the cable guy strangles cats, and wears them as trophy hats
in your house.
the gardener you thought a refugee is actually an escapee, scoping break-ins from his van, with paid up knights of the Klu Klux Clan!
so hunker in your mortgaged cave, hoping that the rest behave; but can the social contract last, when your pastor is a pederast?
