maybe it's because their normal lives are so ordinary
they are seeking the extraordinary in what appears to be the greener grass in your yard
but...
it is clear they don't know about the upkeep it takes to make your yard presentation appear
effortless
but it's not...
it just appears that way
and maybe b/cuz they rarely see the trash in your yard that
they think it doesn't exist
but you know it does
and you do your best to remove it
so perhaps they're not around when the weeds need to be pulled
and the grass needs to be trimmed
and on those oft times when drought comes in
& you need to bring out the other means of rehydrating your lawn again but
they are never around to help when help is needed
so of course they wouldn't know
BUT..
perhaps if they were there... they would know.
that your yard is pretty much the same as theirs
you just pay more attention to your own
and less to your neighbors
& obviously they don't have enough time to
maintain their own lawn
cuz.. they have their nose
all in yours...
