Imperfect Silence by Stewart Stafford
The new roommates were,
The noisiest people alive,
Sandwich-making became,
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
Is that dishwashing?
Or a battle reenactment?
Vibrations from videogames,
Shook the hollow home.
Then the 7 a.m. rite again,
Pianos dropped as you slept,
And their jumbo jet snoring,
Blew you out of the bed.
