Alarms

I’ll never get used to alarms

Though homeowners see all their charms.

It’s too easy to make

Just one tiny mistake

Which can cause some to be up in arms.

 

To disarm one you need fob or code

Or you’ll wake an entire abode

For the noise it emits

Blows one’s eardrums to bits

And those woken from sleep may explode.

 

In the city, alarm use is rare

And it isn’t that people don’t care

But a doorman and lock

Chase the thieves from the block

To the suburbs – alarmers beware!
