A Lame Rent

CEE

Very first month, and
Late with the rent
Got a litta reminder inda door,
Landlord was cool about your payday
Very friendly, chittychatty rote talk
How’s your mother, oh, our kids, bl’bluh,
Everything as trundled tradition
Yes                 This Is Well
Yes                 they were cool
Until you felt it necessary
To explain more fully
Why you were late with your
Very first month’s rent
Then, an oil painting stared back
Mona Lisa frozen, but for eyes
Appraising as from distant epoch
Wondering at Other creature

Hint:
Rent is cold and monetary
And is usually due on the 1st
Check your lease
