Neighborhood

There was a day

 Long ago

Then we knew

 Who our neighbor was

They were friends

 And we were close

And we would

 Help our neighbor out

They were there

 In our need

You could always

 Count on them

Those days are gone

 Now we don’t

Ever know their name

 And never talk

A neighborhood is

 Just where we live

Rows of strangers

 

 Living alone
