fighting over rings and things
we can’t ever forget hate
it’s tattooed on our biceps
trademarked on baseball bats
and army issued khaki pants
we walk around with grudges
taped on our faces like some
splintered biblical family that never
went to church on sundays
nor practiced what they preached
real estate is abundantly spacious
once you are dead and gone
catapulted into the farthest
reaches of the unknown
but in the meantime
we treat it like some precious ring
nobody in this world
deserves to possess

Spacious real estate abundant once you’re gone.. I think I believe that..
I would have to agree with you….
Oh man, you pack a punch with this one. Fabulous!
Thanks so much, Melanie!
