Who Is Your Neighbour For Contest

WHO IS YOUR NEIGHBOUR?
There’s a knock, I take a peep and it’s her,
My neighbor, my endless bother.

She takes a seat, I take a sigh,
It’s going to be a long morning and am not high.

I need no paper to know what’s up the vine,
My very own radio, come to bring me the grapevine.

I stand and tap my foot, but she is oblivious,
She settles in and sips her tea…is she serious?

I sit and plot where to duck tomorrow
Because you give her a second, she snatches an hour.
