Hell is place just next door
The burning beds of suburbia
White washed fear mongers
Patriotic pencil pushers
Racist redneck scoundrels
Hell is a place down the street
Heroin veined child’s play
Playground shooting range
Candle light vigil litter box
Graffiti church door locked
Hell is a place forgotten
Under overpasses zoom
Alley head giving hopeful
Abandoned castles of commerce
Ceiling leak lost libraries
Hell is a place inside us
Post traumatic messiness
Politically corrected rejected
Abused addiction advisories
Sleep deprived slave drones
