Things People Steal


shampoo, combs, brushes,
liquor, obviously, but that’s not locked up,
condoms, apparently as much as toothpaste,
one leads to the other?
cough syrup, but not pills.
mouthwash, conditioner, cigarettes,
lotto tickets. this lock could probably
fall with a hammer, or a steel toed shoe
but if that’s what you’re going for
just take the glass. It is standing there clean,
objects of your goals behind it, no fingerprints.
