Tacit understanding regarding designated parking spaces

rew4er2nail

just dawned upon me awareness today
April 20th, 2022 14:30 military time.


Unvoiced law of the land
obeyed lest one

who owns temporary priority

will get mad and deliver hex

upon generations of violator

even if parked car property

of an innocent visitor,

who knew not the space

self relegated to Matthew Scott.

 

Fifth anniversary of our occupancy

housed within one bedroom apartment

additionally, familiarly, and specifically

known to us as B44

will occur July first

two thousand and twenty two.

 

Soon after we,
(yours truly and the missus)

moved here first day of seventh month

two thousand and seventeen

both of us unanimously co-opted

select parking space.

 

For residents at highland manor Apartments

self assigned parking exists here,

and each resident better be conscientious

cuz resulting consequence

(think Monty Python's Flying Circus

forever linkedin courtesy

John Philip Sousa's

'The Liberty Bell' March),

where mean strong arm of law


actually disguised as

animated outsize foot

reaches from out the sky

and crushes wayward miscreant

hence verboten to dare occupy

parking space of another.

 

Fond memories associated

with me attempting to back into
between painted (occasionally

blurred) lines describing

open ended box,

whereby after umpteen attempts

(after shearing off tire tread

of driver or left passenger side)

amidst guffaws uttered by spouse,

she insists to take over
and backs in with nary a hitch.

 

Such unspoken accommodation

also prevailed when I happened
to consider myself a perpetual student
and established voluntarily
choosing a catbird seat,
and remaining steadfast sitting
in same chair
(of course I mean only

during time class in session)
throughout the semester.
