Topic: Prickly

you can choose your friends
but not your neighbours
with a bit of luck they`re one and the same
before i moved house
my nearest neighbours where
a prickly woman and a barking dog
my new abode is much the same
some nice people but not all
i seemed to have swapped
the prickly woman and barking dog
for a prickly man and twitching curtains.

A good band name Twitching Curtains. Whenever I'm out walking from now on passing houses I will be looking out for twitching curtains . Good poem.     

Re: Prickly

Thank you Brian for making me laugh first thing in the morning. Last two lines tickled me, though I recognise the rest of your work too as I swapped one load of disrupters for another over the years, what can you do? Stuck between a rock and a hard place, the devil and the deep blue sea.     

Ask not what Chordie can do for you, but what you can do for Chordie.

Brian
too funny... but probably not so much for the reality
I agree with Pete - that would be a pretty cool band name.

Hope you find some good people behind the curtains.

Re: Prickly

Hope things improve for you.   So true, we can pick our friends but not our neighbors.  Your sure it isn`t your electric, acoustic guitar amplified going full blast making the neighbors curtains move, twitch big_smile
