The neighbours watched day by day
wondering what was coming their way.
Slowly constructed to great surprise,
a mish mash of wire, haunted their eyes.

Surpassing the city’s bylaw in height,
overlapped wood on wire, a sight.
Enormous structure, extremely tall,
surely soon to topple and fall.

Passers by look on in dismay,
shaking their heads while walking away.
A gloomy picture to be sure,
no real-estate agent would adore.

Neighborhood property value decreased.
Renters will not renew their lease.
A smirk rests upon her soured face,
she has created a neighborhood disgrace.

Working by night, sleep by day.
creating more fence for morning display.
Neighbors feared facing the morning sun,
for what this night-worker may have done.

The message she sends is very clear,
stay out of my life or beware.
Her mind diffused, a complex puzzle.
What comes next could grow and double.

To be continued…….
