Lil Hucch Nayyi - Corner House

"Invitation beckons thee
Don't forget your pedigree
Curb your canine instincts or
You'll be turned away"
Summons never felt so good
Summoner misunderstood
Nothing could induce him to
Ruin their special day

Company would be advised
Soiree seems to be mid-sized
Someone else who knows him there
Wouldn't go amiss
Phonebook needs some filtering
Leaving only one to ring
Call the dog who's prone to rage
Pack travel is bliss

Party moods must be prepared
He can't let expense be spared
Get the finest bag of waste
To kick off his mood
Pestilence is prevalent
Legal code's irrelevant
Only one thing matters and
That must be pursued

Flicks and clicks mark the occasion
Drag and release
Flames are dancing, waving visions
Further his peace
Pungent odours wash his waistcoat
Don't look away
Now he's got the burning taste for
Blast-frozen prey

Every sodden step is sinking
Into the streets
Struggling to understand where
He's meant to be
Surely the best thing to do is
Ask for advice
Time to find a friendly ear and
Hope that they're nice

Hail a driver passing by and
Ask for a ride
Mumble out the destination
And step inside
Whisper to the rage-prone canine
"Watch for the fare"
"Make sure that the driver doesn't
Try being unfair"

Journey's taking longer than he thought
Surely his directions aren't shot
Shoot texts to summoning silverware
Stare at screens that lack the answer there
Time to make another call hoping that
The receiver is receptive and
Answers burning inquiries after roads
Climbing costs of traveling seem to bode

Garbled speech comes over the line
Asking if he's lost sense of time
Tardiness is not befitting
Patience for his faults are flitting
Whisper into the receiver
"Driver seems to be a schemer"
Suddenly eyes in the rearview
Make it clear the driver heard too

Verbiage is getting heated
Words are ugly, fares unseated
Steaming up is getting easy
Hoping passers-by don't see the
Violence that is sure to unfold
And the body soon being knocked cold
Send the driver through the window
Right onto the corner house door
