Grudge House

I am afraid of "Grudge House"
And the noises that come from it.
As a private joke, I wag my finger.
"Grudge House" sends me a blank note.

It is indeed a marvelous structure.
I can see it fine from here, thanks.
A book tells me to walk up to my fear,
And that it will pass away.

I stay indoors and watch tv instead.
The mail piles up on the lintel.
Many years pass; I draw some comics.
"Grudge House" is repainted twice.
