I became a thief of the streets, trekking between Boston and Belfast for world smugglers roads intercepts concerning conflict-zone gems zones exploitations from African shores. I swapped rumored/insured 'blood-diamonds' with glass-animal toys for eco-message for Western banks and Earthling stories (Selfie-like).



BANK MANAGER: He used an eco-theater prop water-rifle filled with acid.
INTERPOL: Told the lone guardsman to dance in front of the camera mid-swap.
MANAGER: Covered the camera with bubble-wrap; some insurance gossip stunt!
INTERPOL: Blood-diamond corruption makes Western streets lore for Halloween.
MANAGER: Facebook-like?



GIRLFRIEND (Waitress): Luchi-bread for Thanksgiving?
ME: Sure beats street food in Belfast, love (ha).
GIRLFRIEND: Well, me thinks the holidays gifts is (all) chandelier.
ME: The fan of Dickens can find good Artful Dodger materialities, surely!
GIRLFRIEND: Selfie-like.



This sort of work can make one feel either like Robin Hood or Billy the Kid; and honestly, the holidays in the UK one season-on-Earth had me wondering if reading comics growing up in the West (American Homeland) would draw in me some special languages for fortune's jagged-edge metaphysics (for leviathan/uncertainty). At least the art of the thief had always been linked to the lights (and consumerism!) of Earthling jam for changelings (for all!).
