Theft in the Neighborhood

“Ah Ronnie! Days just pass by.

Nothing serious or curious happens around.

Oh you heard it too?

Yes, there was a theft in the neighborhood.

But never mind, it’s not our home.

Some strangers entered the house by force.

'Mr. Mike was shot,

His daughter raped

And his wife injured',

They say.

But never mind, it’s not our home.

Remember Brownie? Their dog!

Luckily it was only tranquilized.

Poor lad! I have taken him home.

Isn’t it inhumane to orphan a pet?

The house and appliances are badly damaged.

It was an unfortunate incident.

But never mind, it’s not our home.

I was watching Netflix

When I heard the commotion.

For a moment I thought  

My earphones were damaged.

You see these are the new ones

You sent from London last week.

Lucky! They are fine.

We got the news from the newspaper boy.

No! I don’t know if valuables are lost.

You see, I don’t peep into others’ matters.

However their car seems missing.

But never mind, it’s not our home.

'There was a similar incident

In the house before it in the lane',

They say.

They have alarmed our mom

Hinting the next is ours.

But you don’t worry.

I don’t let any trouble seeking habits in this house.

Sarah! See who is at the door.

SARAHH!

Rr..Ron..Ronnie, I think they are home.”

Reader, never mind, it’s not our home.
