Little Criminals

My daydreams are like clumsy little thieves
poking about for something of value.

Have at it you rascals!

I have some time, and no reason
to put locks on the door.

Be careful. You might stand up, sit down, then wonder if you stood up and sat down.

Little Criminals

Hello, Michael,
Too rich! :) My daydreams wear rose-colored glasses and pretend the world is full of rainbows and unicorns. I feel just the opposite - reality is thieving me of my daydreams.
Very nice!
