Ka, Ka, and Kas…………………!

Once upon a time,

Not long ago,

Success this would define,

The snazzy folk next door,

Although just par Terre,

Higher reaches tried to score,

Their ugly features,

Like their nose,

Always higher rose,

No matter how restrained,

Ones greetings friendly like,

Not replying entertained,

Even the doggies,

That little pair,

High stepping the nose up in the air,

The diamond crusted leash,

And high coiffure,

With golden plates of kish,

Politely did I ask they would?

Turn down a notch,

That convertible’s rumble if they could,

And while I’m asking, the AC’s whine,

To quieting it,

They would decline,

Their noisy parties day by day,

With women, dance and song,

At midnight turn down that noisy play,

Got to thinking by and by,

Judging by their stock up nose,

Took requests just from up high,

But being shy on large supply,

Of them, like green,

Could only ask or try,

Well I thought I need some help,

I do have friends,

Up in the sky,

Since it seems they listen,

Only to a higher call,

From the one that’s risen,

Now that didn’t help at all,

Obfuscation was the thing,

All my requests would stall,

Then took them to a higher court,

Called in the lawyers from on high,

Have them with dirty tricks retort,

And being friends they came, all dressed in shiny black,

Prim and proper,

Every morning they came back,

Case by case their long discussions,

This, my case of great import,

Some dirty linen, be in public washing,

On constant call they were,

Morning day and night,

With me, left over morsels share,

And would I need them all,

In a hurry so to speak,

Just had to ca, ca, call,,

The hydro line,

Just near the house,

All sat upon it there just fine,

Long tails of proper black,

Always prim and proper,

This serious case would crack,

So many lawyers on this case,

And all that ca, ca, noise,

When out their window flew a vase,

Not deterred by missile fire,

Shrill or harsh demeanour,

More lawyers they would hire,

This in turn, made every day,

Into a lawyers banquet,

Where more and more would stay,

Debate and raucous passions,

While decibels turned higher,

Within their deep discussions,

Devoted friends to say the least,

Not leave a crumb unturned,

It is the nature of the beast,

With all this black horizon looming,

Every morn at five,

Toward the neighbours windows zooming,

What joy it brought to see such effort,

Such devotion on my behalf,

From the highest court,

Sadly though I have to mention,

Not everyone was thrilled,

Called for this case’s suspension,

And to reinforce their claim,

Opened windows wide, and,

With a blunderbuss took aim,

Alarmed the neighbours took to rise,

Someone call the cops I heard,

Then sirens, cops, and urgent cries,

Commotion all around, now turning into mirth,

Then laughter all around,

Our neighbour shackled to the ground,

It wasn’t long thereafter,

But continued for some time,

More neighbours came for laughter,

Nothing this great day would mar,

All is back to normal now,

Our neighbour now behind steel bars,

Just one more move I thought,

And sure enough,

Before I knew the, house of hell was bought,

This is how the story ends,

Let me introduce you to,

Ka, Ka, and Ka,,,,,,,,,,,,,, they’re all my friends!
