Karaoke Past Midnight--Wbm

My neighbor Mike loves karaoke
Who sings off-tune a Hokey Pokey;

          Grinds he with delight
          But it's twelve of night...

Irked, my alarm whips that voice croaky.

~ Congress in the Philippines moves to approve
a bill that enforces a 10 pm karaoke ban in residential areas.~

Superfine piece! Ditto, those night crooners belt pitchy songs without regard for people sleeping.
