Our neighbours love to spy on us,
peeping through their windows without fuss,
all eyes on our daily activities,
as they try to solve their own perplexities.
some may say they're spying on us,
but maybe they just want to copy us,
our arguments may make us Angry Birds,
ready to bump heads without any words.
But our neighbours seem to enjoy our fights,
maybe it's their secret guilty delights,
watching us in hot conversations,
motivates them to take some actions.
Oh, let them watch and let them see,
our drama is their favorite reality TV,
we'll keep living our lives with a flair,
as long as they're not peeping -
while we're in our underwear.
Peeping Toms are a reality. I imagine that living with the explicit knowledge that you are being spied upon by your neighbors is real fun…
Nice humorous poem; your neighbours are very curious about your personal matters; nice to read
If you DON'T want them peeping at you while you are in your 'underwear', TAKE IT ALL OFF! ! ! bri ) five stars to this entertaining and thoiught-provoking poem. : )
Do 'you' do your fighting in your driveway, on your patio, or in your outdoor sauna? ? Or do 'you' live in a clear glass home?
stanza 1: Yes, be open-minded aka 'receptive to arguments or ideas'. Maybe the neighbors aren't spying for 'bad' reasons e.g. they are not planning to invade your home, but for 'good' reasons e.g. to copy YOUR good examples of a stable, happy existence
I guess 'perplexities' can make sense in stanza 1. 'PERPLEXITY: 1: the state of being perplexed: bewilderment 2: something that perplexes 3: entanglement
