There goes the neighborhoodA Poem by EmmeNot plagiarized from the Sheryl Crow song :)
Curled up on the couch
Sleeping peacefully Like an angel Like my sister when she was five Except that she was still young And innocent Unlike him who is Thirteen years more experienced Than the kid who used to roll onto my side of the mattress So much changes over time The building I would've come to if I'd clicked my heels together Has changed a lot There's a glass table with a beer mug Where my Fischer Price plastic table used to be A motorbike where my chalk drawings went The bushes that sheltered my neighbor's shy kitty And the fence I crashed into are gone So much has moved on
