Array ( [sid] => 15521 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => Blabberings of a Pickpocket [time] => 2003-04-04 05:05:00 [hometext] => This poem is based on the life of a pickpocket whom I had met sometime in the past.His interesting history inspired me to write this poem [bodytext] => They call me with stinking envy,
a sly skilled slippery pickpocket.
Ah!do not dexteriously remove,
your enamelled golden locket,
for I am here not to lurk,
but to a break off my work.
If you have time wastefully sparing,
do listen to my tales;full of daring.

I was born in an infamous slum,
surrounded by pompous skyscrapers,
watching and remaining mum.
A turbulent childhood;devoid of basic needs,
always doing amazing acrobatic deeds.
My 'seniors' doomed to be whacked out,
the genius in me had begun their rout.
My fame now spread far and wide,
few venture to swim against my tide.
At last! history has found someone
wily and wise,
the 'craft' has flowered and blossomed,
into a science tuned,perfect and precise.

Ah! I see a golden goose coming,
just falling on me;a peace offering.
Meet at dusk with tubs of bubbling ale,
their are a lot more twists left,
in my racy streamy tale.
