BUYER BEWARE

Looking for a house,
the family and I,
We found an empty
across from the dump.
Quiet, serene, peaceful?
Or not!

Horrid, grasping,
Reaching, yearning!
Windows for eyes
Doors were throats
Couldn't they see?
Couldn't they sense?

Don't go near!
Don't go close!
Oh no
Now it's too late!
Son-in-law no more.
