Houses and houses
Stand row by row,
Continuing an endless
Garden flow

The front yards pose
As mini lands hatch
The garage doors
Lay mixed and matched
A potent patch
Of quilts that clash

But the sidewalk is passive
Neutral and cold
Yet comforting
Grey square follows
Grey square,
Like a chessboard during peacetime.
