The Thief (Senryu) Poem by Sandra Martyres

i really wonder what his prayer would be...the big level thieves donate a percentage to god even..the concept of god...i think differs from person to person

A good thief is the one noone suspects! Very nice!

great senryu Sandra! ...but let me play devil's advocate...maybe he finally saw the light and is there to ask for forgiveness... or maybe to ask for help to make him stop his evil ways... we never know do we... only the one he's praying to (or pretending to pray to) really knows......

Yes, the worst ones on earth share our dna..it seems a sacrilege, really? Loved the stark portrait of the thief with pretend innocence and normalcy.

It's like wolf in the garb of lamb! Nice!

This wonderful senryu laces seventeen syllables with intrigue and menace. S :)
