Analysis of NEXT DOOR



No one is pure evil except Alshamsi
The next door super villain
Always barking of standards
Yet succumbs to despair and anger.

Hunting friends with no mercy
Claims to own a management
With no active system
Brags of complacency.

Disgrace..
Has inflicted the nation of blood
Everyone now smells like him
The super villain talks of wealth.

A poor soul with engraved heart
He has left scars on the bleeding wounds
He has opened a death panel for his close ones
He is married to his sins!

Crime being his wake-up call
Thirst for blood has been his emergency
His timeline is a foul fence
He works midnight in the name of duty!
