"THE QUIETNESS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT 3"
It was another quiet night
It was a sleepers delight
In the distance a sound became noisier
As it kept getting closer and closer
The sound was very annoying
Waking up those who were sleeping
The loud sports car kept running
Around the block several times
The driver set off loud chimes
What was this crazy driver doing
What was it the driver was seeking
After three trips around the block
The driver took off up the next block
Didn't return for another round
Everyone again could sleep sound
The guy was around again just the other night....It really makes me wonder what's going on....
My experience like this has been cars that go "bump" in the night with speakers that are guaranteed to blow the eardrums of the occupants of the car. Motorcycles with their high-pitched, almost muffler-less sound. The kind of annoying that reaches down to the tips of your toes. The garbage pickup at five in the morning every day in the apartment complex behind the house. As the truck revs its engine to move to the next dumpster and then the clanging of the dumpster door as it bangs against the truck. Can be mistaken for thunder. Finally, sirens running around the neighborhood waking everybody up and flashing red and blue lights coming through the windows and bouncing off the walls. Something guaranteed to make you get up, pull your pants on and see who died this time.
