Fright Night

Poem Commentary

As usual, an inspiration from an actual experience I had looking for a roommate! Arrgghhhh!

Fright Night

I went to see a room one night,

A place "To-Let," but wasn’t right.

The smells and bells caused such a flurry

That pizza man left in a hurry.

 

My mind said “Quick, some thing is wrong,

Doorbell pressed, but no ding-dong.”

She hollered at the other end,

“Hey there honey, come right on in!”

 

Two dogs chained down with cable cords,

They weren’t allowed “To-Let” outdoors,

House looked trashed, up to the stairs

But dogs and lady didn’t care.

 

When I met the other roomie,

She said, "Good Luck" and "Fung Shui" to me.

“Let me show you where you’ll stay,

And I’ll be out of here today!”

 

I said I could not well abide

To live like that or be inside,

With a glance I noticed more,

Six-Six-Six was on the door!
