Theology's Tiebout Sorting

What does it mean to say "Love thy neighbour as thyself?'
Not some Prosopoi's cosmetic of Kairotic Pelf
Nor kshana sampatti
Or Credentialist epiphany
But the fact that neighbours are
 what each other bar
That incest without de-fects
Affects without e-ffects
 bosonic bonds in which to invest your own excess of affection
for the next-door cat or kid or chatty Kathy or druggie Doug 
Upon whom Judgment is suspended
Till up-ended
By the Darwinian demon of infection
Of every up-your-arse bug
Such that, as through a glass darkly, you come plainly to see
Your neighbour is you but neighbourhood madly me.
