I shouldn't have to wear earplugs at 7am because my neighbours are inconsiderate

I shouldn't have to put up with their taste in loud music at all hours. . .at any hour

I shouldn't have to listen to him yelling and swearing at her. . ."you f**king mole", "You Stupid bi*ch", "You're a f**king liar".

I shouldn't have to deal with him being rude to my guests as they pass his apartment to get to mine.

I shouldn't have to manoeuvre around the broken down washing machine they've decided to leave in the driveway.

I shouldn't have to look at her underwear draped on clothes-horses in the driveway because she's to lazy to walk the 5 meters to peg them on the clothes line.

I shouldn't have to grin and bear it because I have 4 months left on my lease and saying something could make my life hell for those 4 months.

I shouldn't have to be afraid.
