One step forward
Two steps back

Swipe his card

And push him back

Three moves left

Four moves right

I call this theft

But never at night

Five meters down

Six meters high

This pretty red gown

Sees through your lie

Seven dazzling smiles

Eight pouty lips

A hundred miles

For a thousand trips

I have to say I just don't understand what you're trying to convey. No picture forms for me when I read it. Spacing seems weird. "Never at night" should be "not at night" so the rhythm remains the same.
