May 2012
Push the pins, trick the tumblers;
Hear the clicks, add the numbers.

Artistry at its best, beauty incomprehensible
Such practiced hands, this lock original.

Oh I wonder I wonder, what’s inside?
Then, a chuckle drifts over the sound of shear line.

Survived of failed attempts and melted keys,
Yet, my chest still ends up empty.
