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.
