Sounds like the junk yards in South Phoenix, except that no one lives in them or sticks around at night, except the dogs! The words of this old song are going through my head right now.
DON'T FENCE ME IN
(Cole Porter)Oh, give me land, lots of land under starry skies above,
Don't fence me in
Let me ride through the wide open country that I love,
Don't fence me inLet me be by myself in the evenin' breeze
And listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees
Send me off forever but I ask you please,
Don't fence me inJust turn me loose, let me straddle my old saddle
Underneath the western skies
On my Cayuse, let me wander over yonder
Till I see the mountains riseI want to ride to the ridge where the west commences
And gaze at the moon till I lose my senses
And I can't look at hovels and I can't stand fences
Don't fence me in
You prefer a wall, correct?
