Neighbor With a Gun
I had a neighbor who had some
mental instability concerns
Whether he was a threat to us
we were unable to discern
He would have a fire burning
in the middle of the night
and shoot off his gun night or day
and much to our and our
neighbors dismay
Someone called the police
just to have it on record
not knowing his potential to
hassle and heckle
One day I heard several shots
pop--pop--pop--pop
I told my husband and he
said " call the cops,
he's at it again !! "
As I was ready to dial 911
I remembered I had popcorn
in the microwave oven !!
( True story )
