My Name Is

The neighbor to the left is very inviting, maybe too inviting. She came over and brought us a pie and offered us to come over for dinner, but I made up some excuse to not have to go.

I’ll hear people blabbing above me on the streets how awful it was that I, “Stole the lives of so many innocent people.” WELL LISTEN HERE!

There was also dirt covering every part of my body. How it got up my pants? I have no clue, but it was rubbing my skin the wrong way.
