Mindgames....inspired by you, I could not stop myself rhyming....here are some excerpts..
Driftwood apartments... boarding hundreds of Nepalese
Some russians, some ethiopians but no chinese
Sometimes,at night, when you come out of the door
Down lies some drunken homey on the floor
Friends squabble, over grocery bills
And do not stop until melancholy fills
Cussing, swearing at one another
Forget that they said all nepalese are brothers
Some people sweep floors, some do dishes
And some watch the sunset and white marlin fishes
Corona, Budwieser...they savor it all
And wail that they did not save enough for fall
Seventeen hours of back breaking work
Still the pay is so little forget about the perk
Even then they shop at Tommy and GAP
And buy colognes from Ralph lauren called "chaps"
Superfresh soars high..so does Sunsations
They do wonderful business if in amalgamation
Burgerking and Mcdonalds never stop serving
And add one more restaurant with those earnings
I had enough...I heard someone yell
And I also heard the blows in the wall he pumelled
Swearing to god that he would never come back
He was there again next year with the same old back pack.
