ode to the upstairs neighbors running the Vaccum

by Stephanie Myers

Secretly, I sit here and plan your demise,
the power running throughout my dreams.
Awakened I am, coherent to the sounds
creeping above the ceiling above my bed.

THUMP

Bowling for a new toupee?
Seems the one you had is scalped now,
like a prize from a white man running.
Screams pass through the night, as
nothing new at all it seems, its all
happened just rightly before.

Shower turned on, I step into the hot
steam to cleanse my body, of the bodies
of impurities left upon and outward.

This reminds me so of my upstairs neighbours. Their bed squeaks. By now I know their every routine...hehhe. Great read!
