A kleptomaniac was born, His specialty was hearts That he whisked away In a real short time. An oriental angel ascended, Upon him she descended In a way that changed All of what was his.

A Kleptomaniac
I made this skirt from Pierre Cardin's spring collection Where a thief stole a pound, and I paid a nickle. I made this shirt from A pretty curtain That I ripped out of a groovy bungalow I made this bracelet from Beads drifting down river Arakawa A child's beads, probably thrown in a tantrum. I made this pendant from A glass marble from a goldfish bowl In the small classroom of an elementary school I found my socks in a dumpster. I found my shoes in a runaway train. I found my coat on the shoulders of a model. And so I plead not guilty.

kleptomania
I want to steal your kisses, And your time, And your love. I want to breathe in your air, And your feelings, And bits of your soul. I want to inhale your history, And your sadness, And your happy. I want to wrap my arms around your shoulders, And your heavy heart, And your splintered spine. I want to take your heartbreak, And your worry, And your tears. I want to wipe away your jutted lip, And furrowed brow, And damp cheeks. I want to steal every single part of you, And only give back, The good stuff.

Kleptomania
he walks by me his scent lingering in the breeze seeming so innocent-- oh so innocent-- in his faded jeans and white muscle tee. the soundwaves fills with his voice as he sings along to the uncountable stares prevailing in his presence. our eyes never waver as he fades out of our view. but as we look back at our unimportant, insignificant, unnoticeable selves, all our chests had were gaping holes; empty and desolate. for he had cruelly, but unintentionally -- out of fleeting impulse -- stolen our hearts.
