demolished boyhood house zen

sprawled atop spaciously shingled roof
countless years (B)efore...

A letter, a bill and two lousy flyers,
One for insurance and one selling tires.

Nothing seemed special, all...

No one that fact denies.

However:  the other day
A big story was in our paper.
Of a group of upset neighbors
Pulled off a “real-estate” caper....

Renegade realtor dealt only with sellers sincere 
Harried under hammer results which rich revere
Assured Lofty turned over listings like sausages

The goal of every homeowner?
Whole companies now exist solely
To maintain this suburban vision
With “lawn control” fertilizers and
A multitude of weed killer sprays,
In the process destroying habitat
And...

A seasoned cat burglar 
climbs through 
the kitchen window;
his eyes scanning 
left, right, front, and back...
"Good, no one's home,"
or so he fought.
He tiptoes through the house,
going from room to room,
rummaging through drawers 
and stuffing knick...

Do you see many snacks on the counter?

Perhaps the homeowner eats many,
and the snacks you see were set out yesterday
to be gone tomorrow.

Perhaps the homeowner does not eat them at all,
and the snacks you see...
