Answer» Teacher254Virtuoso Answer: The poem upstairs is a humorous poem on how it is living with neighbors in the same apartment and probably sharing the same walls. He describes how noisy it is since their RADIO is always louder than yours ,thus in a way invading your space with their entertainment. How they enter the bathroom on roller skates,to DESCRIBE hoe their movement is noisy too. How your ceilings leak when they take showers,meaning WATER flows from their place to your place. How they tend to make their parties mix by supplying their guest with pogo sticks,not knowing if they're used for PLAYING inside the house or fighting,but all in all the idea of supplying guests in the house with pogo sticks is absurd. Their living room is a bowling alley to show how noisy and busy the place is and their bedroom full of conducted tours. The WRITER prefers if the neighbors lived in another floor,since he could even love them more. |
