Poetic-Verses
'' As Both Are Buried Underneath ''
As I spoke to my neighbours the other day,
I said I was getting new gates,
They said theirs were already on the way,
Their attitude really grates.
Last year I told him I'd broken my leg,
He claimed he had once fractured two,
They both loved to take you down a peg,
Doing more than you could ever do.
Then one day I smashed the car,
The damage was beyond belief,
The neighbours reactions were quite bizarre,
They said this will give you relief,
He claimed his car did a somersault,
Turned over fifty times,
The other driver who was at fault,
Was committed for his crimes.
I walked away without a scratch,
Unlike you I was unharmed,
Bet that's a story you can't match,
His tales had me alarmed.
She claimed she'd jumped out of an aeroplane,
Her parachute then failed,
But thankfully due to heavy rain,
In the mud she was impaled.
Anything you have ever done,
They'll have did it ten times over?
Even being stunned by an alien gun,
As above their craft did hover.
One day the builder came to my door,
I had asked him for a quotation,
Getting anything done is such a chore,
You'd think it was an alien invasion.
Suddenly from next door they did appear,
Quizzing my builders mind,
What are you doing why are you here,
Has anything been signed.
I told them I was installing a burial lair,
Where our corpses we could hide,
For the afterlife we had to prepare,
As we were contemplating suicide.
We no longer see the neighbours now,
Though in their memory we do lay a wreath,
Digging up their new patio we will not allow,
