The neighbor I want is the young
Latino couple who lived next door
to us on Toulouse Street almost
20 years ago. The young man came
out and offered to change my tire.
I said I’m not that old, I can do it.
He came back with two Modelos
and sat with me until I was done,
ICE can Fuck right back to whatever
loser pool hall next to the trailer
park they were recruited from.
Fuck You You Fucking Fuck.
