Dirty Rotten Thieves

They’ll thieve from you your money 
Your shoes that you just brought,   
They do it with a notion          
That they’ll never get caught.  

Though I state this very clearly and
With much integrity 
I’m proud and loud with no shroud for
Thievings not for me.

They’ll thieve what they think they deserve
They thieve what they just want,
Is a fact- a dirty act
To pull a thieving stunt.

They thieve in the name of love
They thieve behind your back,
They think they are entitled 
For things that they do lack.

They’ll thieve your words and twist the verbs
Your designs, plans, ideas,
Then they’ll act almighty from
Stealing time and years.

They’ll thieve your light when shining bright
Your heart and curly locks,
They’ll thieve your garden hose out front and
Your letter box.

They are not fair they do not care
To steal what is not theirs,
Their in a class of their own and some
are billionaires.

The greediness, the avarice 
rapacity, extortion,
Be careful of corruption
for this can cause distortion.
