Become A Thief
And steal your life back from the jackals
That encircle you, telling you what you must do before you can rest.
Snatch back bits of time from the taskmaster called Busyness.
Refuse the shiny baubles offered to entertain
And steal back the treasures of your own silence.
Stop being a good slave to the system of death
Be in bold and constant rebellion against the status quo
Become a thief
And steal back the gift you lost.
