THE NEIGHBORHOOD

Venture to your closest neighborhood bar outside of your neighborhood
See if you are welcome
Then take a shit in the bathroom and leave it
Walk out
Leave your beer on the bar and your tab unpaid
Believe in the kindness of the neighborhood

There were two people with the last name Williams in the neighborhood
You have no blood relation to them
But you related to them on separate occasions without even knowing their names
And you all have a dead dad in common

Something smells in the neighborhood
All of the neighbors and the other assholes that wander around blame the sanitation department
But you know the answer is much simpler than that
It’s never an organization
It’s a few thousand individuals taking a shit at once and forgetting to flush
