A Building Is Not a Home

A building is not a home, Because it’s got a nice foam: There has to be some blood ties One can feel their truths and lies Or man and woman with rings That control their reckless wings… A building is not a home For looking like ones in Rome: It has to be rather safe: The skins there should not just chafe… You get to like Homes caring: The best place for child-rearing, Children strict ideas grabbing But for soon sniffed ones grubbing… A building is not a home For its finished top like office: The White House is an office Don’t in your home office fix.
