THE THIEF

THE THIEF

The intruder slowly enters

Invited by non other than me.

Yes, I have welcomed it

Even sought out this

Rascally thief.

Day or night,

It doesn't care

As into my home it comes.

Truly, a home invasion.

How do I stop this thief?

Can I halt it?

Do I even want to

Thwart this sneaky thief?

I tell myself each time I face it

No longer will it steal

Away my precious time.

But, alas, it always does.

Can I fight it?

Can I stop it?

Yes, I can!

All that must be done

This thief to stop

Is just a little click of the mouse

And it is stopped, jailed and

Locked away.

At least until the jury (me)

Decides the thief

Its time has served.

Then this loveable, addict able thief

Is once again released

My time to steal away another day.

Can I really lock away these thieves:

E-mail, blogs, games, facebook, 

Reading, writing and oh, so much more?

A lock down there must be

For time is such a priceless treasure

One so easily stolen

As at the computer I sit.

My computer

Thief or Companion...

You be the judge!
