What Happens When You Spy On the Neighbours

Help me now, I need a drink,
God only knows, maybe even a shrink!
I was just doing some harmless spying,
Don't look at me like that, I'm not lying!

Up in the tree by the wall
Listening to the birds call,
Then the sight I saw with my eyes...
Please no more, be silent my cries!

I nearly fell off my perch in disgust,
What I saw, it was just....
It's imprinted there, forever in my mind,
Oh, what a disgrace to all of mankind!

My neighbour in all his glory
Wearing just his birthday suit,
His only saviour being his pants
If they hadn't been there and I'd seen his fruit!!

Oh my, I would have gone blind!
Me, so naïve and innocent
Please, let me leave that moment behind
Else I really will go out of my mind!

Right, now calm down,
I'll feel better for getting it off of my chest,
Then there will be no more
Of this sinning feeling left!

He was in his bedroom
Parading around in his briefs,
Blue and stripy, caught up in his bum crack,
All crumpled and creased.....
My, it's a wonder my sanity is still intact!

Goodness, I'm all of a shiver
Not to mention a bit of a quiver,
I will surely now grow up profoundly disturbed,
What I would have preferred
To see him in his trousers,
Not in the least
Those awful briefs!

I am most definitely mentally scarred
My brain in utter anguish,
Oh, these thoughts I am having!
Away they must perish!

Whenever I close my eyes
Flashes of images I see...
Where is my salvation, they must be censored,
Why oh why
Did I climb that tree?!

Dear lord I am only a virgin
Send me now the memory surgeon,
Just the scene
The sight I cannot erase,
Like a haunting, terrible dream,
An impossible nightmare,
Him in his underwear!
It's driving me into a craze!

I mean it's not as if he's Brad Pitt
Really his physique
Is remarkably like that of a paper-clip,
Immediately my thoughts were “Eeeeeeeek!
I have seen a near naked geek!”

Legs like a grasshopper,
Upper body certainly no woman stopper,
And those awful awful pants
Just remembering it now
Is giving me cramps!

Now, save your sniggers,
For goodness sake, he's in his fifties!
Definitely not a 20-year-old figure,
Give me strength, never in eternity dishy!!

Please, if you're listening,
You really need curtains,
Or at least warn us if
You're going to do any more of these exertions!

Dearie me, still the sight
I cannot put into words,
But I suppose you will say that's what happens
When you spy on the neighbours!

Oh Jewel....

You delicate flower you.... this really didn't happen.... did it? If it did.....LOLOLOLOL...
Sorry, I had to get it out of my system....

Yes, very unfortunately, it did!

Though I did exaggerate somewhat the extent of my horror...! Thank you Lee, ♥

LOL

Good story Jewel! It's like they say, be careful what you ask for! The trauma will pass. 3 decades from now, you'll hardly remember it at all!

PS. I thought I had curtains... ???

Shut off the tube if you want a true reality show
Engage the mind, not the mindless

I'll be ultra careful

in the future! And maybe it will, if I'm still alive then! Thank you for your comment Tom :) ♥

So I guess

you wouldn't want to go to "The Beach" with me LOL. Read it and you will understand.

Good write, my suggestion is to go to church and get some of that Holy Water in your eyes, three Hail Mary's and off you go. Yes I took religion 101 in school :)

" It's not if you will when you want to, but if you can when you have to "

Probably not ☺

But it's a lovely poem, The Beach! And I might just do that, be it trekking 3 miles to the nearest church on foot, then I shall! Thank you Ron, ♥

I have extra binoculars

just in case you need to "magnify" anything...ROTFLMAO funny, funny, you poor, poor innocent girl!! for shame....

No way!

If I had seen a close-up of that, well...let's not go there! Don't roll on the floor forever, unless you can write in hysterics! Thank you, (other) Ron :) ♥

Have you been watching me again... I'm going to honest Jewell .. I love the concept here ... But ... I think you could haave made this flow better... Any hooo... I like the concept.and story line!. Good job!

Ray AKA Yobarney

I hope not ☺

That would be mad! And I know it doesn't flow as well as it could do, used too many of the !! definitely-thank you Ray, when I collect my thoughts again I'll have a fiddle with it :) ♥

Thank you buddy!

I'm glad to hear your thoughts Brandon, and pleased it made you laugh! Thanks, :) ♥

Is this what scared you away from jacuzzis? I can understand why now... A similar thing happened to me as a kid. It was a frightening experience. Very funny write, JP.

You found it!
