Sleeping is not an easy task
Even with a lights out mask
Suddenly awoke with red all around
Took the opportunity to be bathroom bound
The doorbell jarred my brain loud and clear
It’s piercing for people who cannot hear
Then accompanied by a few knocks
I answered “who is it” donning my socks
Firemen ma’am they said, not distressed
I answered, hold on a sec I’m not dressed
I asked after moving in
If I could put the doorbell in the bin
Apparently it’s a housing law code thing
It’s not like the old ones that ding-alinged
With a melody or happy tune
It pierces your ears like a harpoon
But all is well nothing to fear
Fire and rescue is common here.

oops! As long as your ok, but man! I wouldn’t be happy if I had been awoken out of a sleep and had to dress because I had to let the firemen in!
