By chance they'd been awarded the top flat. <br />The view was quite stupendous, they agreed, <br />the drawback was the orange Persian cat <br />which climbed the balcony and always peed. <br /> <br />A feud erupted soon, insults exchanged, <br />veiled threats of shotgun blasts and even worse, <br />the upper class was labeled as deranged <br />but 'Lowlifes' was the mother of a curse. <br /> <br />The judge, who'd lived upstairs himself for years, <br />found nothing nasty bordering on libel. <br />In fact the very term did please his ears, <br />dismissed the case, one hand upon the bible. <br /> <br />It seems that we can call all those below <br />inferior due to geographic facts. <br />Streetlevel living ain't the way to go <br />high level living rightfully attracts.<br /><br />Herbert Nehrlich<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/lowlifes/
