Neighbors




How rude!”
How rude!”
In the middle of kaddish!”
Blocking the way to my mother's grave!”
Look at how they're dressed!”
Look at how they're dressed!”
What do you expect?!?”
What do you expect?!?”
Those people!”
Those people!”
Similar and yet so different,
united by a distant past,
forced to live together,
and eventually to dwell forever as neighbors,
in the earth on which they stand.
