In inner city mazes marauders wait.

Thick with trepidation

rising clouds hasten setting suns As earth and sky

prepare a funereal alleyway of beggers, crooks and Theives.

Thick as thieves...

Thick as thieves 

are pain and my heart

eternal sustenance

for my art

intertwined 

bedfellows

of love and hate

life-long mates.

To my best friend

If you and I weren't as thick as thieves, my life would be dull and meaningless. That's how much you matter.

Master Planners

Tick-tick,

tick-tock, tick-tock,

tick-tick-tick,

thick as thieves,

both birth and death

and time rules them both.

Buttered Toast

She spins her lies

thick and pungent

as thieves

a whirling top

churning like

yellow butter

molding him

to her wishes.

Together

Feral hands, bark crumbling beneath our nails. Grasping, aching from the tug of desperate reach, for we, thick as thieves.

Thick like honey

Thick as thieves

Tick-tock

The thieves destroyed the clock

and its blood ran,

thick as thieves,

and the thieves ran,

as thick as blood.

Thick as thieves they sat, inspired by jeering from the screen. She slept in the corner, chocolate melting in her hand.

Secret Meadow

Here's our hideaway:

The meadow where we play.

Thick as thieves until the day

I found the coffin where you lay.
