knock knock, knock knock
all dead asleep
or no one’s home
a pin, click click click clock
doors open
and shut quietly
a quick once over
tv, camera, xbox
laptop, tablet , half a stiff pizza, some cigarettes,
a bit of jewellery
some nice lingerie too but pity that won’t fetch
a nice umbrella a belt a watch
possibly some loose cash
a goodnight’s haul
now for home, but sudden need for a smoke
sat on the bed, sparked her up
nice coupla satisfying drags before the
smoke alarm started wailing, I was like wtf.
anyway
sonofabitch gave me 5 without parole
food is shit and so’s the company
3 done 2 to go
