A Rock and Scissors

A Rock and Scissors

A Poem by Ryan

I made a collage of

my cut-corners.

The necklace you stole,

sent you straight to jail.

Paper-mache keys won’t

shift the tumblers.

Was a nod of approval worth a

night in the slammer?

Larcenies and forgeries require a

dexterous sinister hand.

Handcuffs were designed to fit

thuggish dukes.

This was very interesting to read... I felt like i wanted to know more to be clear about what it was about although the general idea was easy enough to see. I am keen to see more of your poetry!
