Next to me on this floor
lie men
whose names I never knew
and friends whose numbers
I'll never call
And a lot of religious folks
with no understanding
at all
Next to me on this floor
are neighbors
I prefer not to see
and a very twisted society
and strangers who call
themselves family
This
my bottled up reality
that grog my only therapy
made room
to store permanently
right next to me
on this floor
