If you say Mal, please leave me alone I will But just so you know This is my neighbourhood tourist I live here I don’t have a yard Nor a bedroom Nor a balcony My place is a fraction bigger than a prison cell If I could afford to I’d get a house in the country & talk to the bugs Geez you’d be lonely then You’d have to find someone else to blame For the view in the mirror Published & Copyright Malachi Doyle 2026.
