Hesitant to be neighborly

 

 

 

 

……Slowed down like I was snowbound, that’s why I stay frowned, experiences weigh more than ten thousand pounds, you can be the live wire, I’ll break the ground, so I can muffle the sound; don’t want the attention, cause I’m hesitant, try not to even leave a scent, whisper like I was Clint. Too hesitant to mingle, if I was Kris I’d drop the Kringle, surprised I’m not single, but every now and then I get that tingle. People is work, and I don’t want to hurt, I should put that on my T-shirt, maybe they’ll keep their distance, if they see I’m hesitant; people showed me crazy and it fazed me, it was like they tased me with truth, let me know they wasn’t couth, wish I was a magician, I’d make ‘em go poof, vamoose. I’m hesitant of the new residents, they must be from the jungle, it’s the only way to explain why they ain’t tamed the same as everyone else, shame they seem to be in good health, thank god they don’t have wealth, maybe they’ll move soon, their kids are flunkies, remind me of monkeys, their aunts and uncles are junkies; their cookouts ain’t sunny, they argue and fight in plain sight, make the neighborhood less neighborly, I’m sad, but glad my kids moved away from me. Their kids throw rocks playfully, long as they stay away from me; but this ain’t neighborly.
