there are stowaways
in the luggage of other lives
pickpockets of moments
no one realized they had
they use telescopes to voyeur
and microscopes for juicier details
gather observations
for lyrical blackmail
so watch what you say and do
near open windows or curtains
and keep your secrets
behind triple-locked doors
poets try to regurgitate truth
beauty and definitely odd behavior
which you just might find someday
in the lines of one of my poems
