the neighbour
by DS Maolalai
met the neighbour today
on the way to the elevator.
I had the dog with me
and she had prominent
earrings, and big
red painted lips – quite attractive,
I suppose,
if you like that kind of thing –
I don't, but I did
then, but anyway –
she said she'd take care
of the dog if we wanted.
I'd consider it, only
because they're right across
the hall, though sometimes
we do hear them arguing.
her husband is a little
bit older than I am,
I think. I think
she's a little bit
too. she seemed nice though –
you should meet her. I bet
you'd get on. I'm rambling, listen –
I'm gone, and the dog's
with the neighbour.
we need milk – I'd have taken her,
but I know you get worried.
she'll be fine –
they seem nice, and we need
to get to know them.
