Woodbury New Jersey Whetstone 2

brings world word ii gunnery duty as extremely frightful flashback which utterly displeases this elderly mortal and such behavior moi aback!   Born in this same house on Leona avenue, this oldster doth dwell which neighborhood once felt like heaven, but now seems like hell pet peeves arise with ever more frequency     from increased unpleasant encroachments along this very narrow street    some young hoodlum left trash scattered on property    that blew everywhere pell mell but also parks a slew of cars up and down    both sides of this narrow thoroughfare    blithely co-opting an unused driveway by an elderly lady who lives alone oh, or a male friend of his who guns the engine of a rosey roadster    at the crack of dawn    and when confronted blurted out “i gotta do what i gotta do”    these complaints, i feel a need (albeit anonymously)    this doddering soldier of misfortune doth wish to tell hoping the police can crack down e’en if they need (billy me) to be idle voicing rebellious yell!    address and name withheld on request on account to avoid getting preyed upon via ruffian's quest so…please do not misperceive me a pest but feel grateful (before being dead) to clear me chest only a concerned citizen kane at best and a harmless curmudgeon i attest!
