Snaggletooth The Snitch

rew4er2nail

Me and the missus live in decent
sturdy accommodations (formerly

Schwenksville Elementary School
ofttimes referred to as prison,
and manager as the de facto warden),

albeit not so shabby nor chic low income
quite modest (rather unmatchable cost wise)

low slung building we rent,
for mere dime a dozen

pennies on the dollar,

which facility lacks no shortage


of gossip mongers

with mail delivery major event
whereby many old people smelling of unguent

housing faux superman

thumping flabby chests nsync
with hooking thumbs around
suspenders feigning to be affluent,
and self important as secret double agent
yeah, minus the countless snitches,
livingsocial buzzfeeding rumors

outside our one bedroom apartment


at Highland Manor ranks

as satisfactory ascent
to appease our taste,

and general environmental ambient
aspects compared to other
(mice and roach infested)
housing previous situations of ours

so, despite most every nosy, ancient
snooty, hoity toity...tenant,

particularly one butch,

cock eyed louey, facial accent


a perfect spectacle for circus big-tent
single bucked sharp front tooth

sparkles, mocks, glistens...
as if brushed with Pepsodent

of course displayed "FAKE"

seventh heaven-sent

friendliness, when poor us

being penniless with just tencent

copper piece experienced warm welcome

short time after moving here
(five plus years since July 1st 2022),


but demeanor thereafter went
postal stamping like the dickens

as if me an unrepentant

jokester, nonetheless yours truly minds

against hateful words adamant

lee averse to cast aspersions,

cuz a friendly gesture linkedin
preference to be cogent practicing

what this atheist doth silent
lee preach, sans attempt tubby tolerant
in the face of someone belligerent

 

attentive to credo, dogma, ethos

while alive in world be tolerant

of others, whether he/ she wuzzent

pleasant recalling days of yore,

I felt disgusted when hell-bent
to hurl expletives (adding insult to injury)
if bad mouthed me, thus

object lesson not requiring fervent
fanatical religious fervor

improving health of Clark Kent.

    Maintaining a roof over one's head always involves compromise. I always get amusement out of yorr pieces, even if I don't always reach quite the end....... How, where do you find the time , energy and imagination?
