Right Next Door
The pulse is coming through the wall
With the bass cranked up far too loud
And I can hear the mad witch wail
A member of the crackhead crowd
I tend to lie here in the night
And try to get a little rest
But my wakefulness is still induced
My temper now put to the test
I do consider homicide
But realize the consequence
So I sit down and try to write
Trying to make a little sense.

Author's Note
Another neighbor poem, but such a catharsis! She's been ordered to leave with a non-renewal of her lease, but she's dragging her heels. Hopefully she will be out of here soon. Until then...

Venting out your anger is good for the soul; describing the situation in metaphors and how you felt at this point, I can relate to it.

Good point, Catman. It is good for the soul, and sanity. I may be losing the latter. Thank you!

You're welcome. I am not much better when it comes to sanity.

I'm glad you share my feelings, Brenda. Hopefully the bitch will be effectively ousted, never to return. Thank you!
Re. Right Next Door
You're being patient beyond the call of duty but I can see the element of self-preservation by keeping lowish key about it; hope the end (of her) is soon.
A Limerick Of Solidarity:
The neighbour from hell next door
whose music is thumping your wall
will soon be thrown out
of that we've no doubt
and peace will descend, once more.

The neighbors can be annoying! Love your creative solution to the problem. Hope you get some proper sleep soon.

I think, and hope, I get enough sleep. It's erratic - two hour intervals - so it's hard to tell. I need to get a grip on this rage. Thank you Velvet!

The situation would be better if the landlord took proper action and lived up to his warnings. She ignores them. So, not much I can do. Thanks Flower!

She'll be out of here, one way or another. I might call animal control about her yapping, bitey dog, It's hard to live with all the friction and anger. Thank you!

It's good to calmly write out and assess the situation...all guns blazing rarely ends well, especially with druggies. At least you got a good write out of it.
