Rob Rob

Success is good if you get success

People will respect you if you’re successful

But what if a bank robber is successful?

Getting all that money from his raids

Dozens of robberies and hold ups 

Netting him millions terrifying hundreds

Threatening aiming shooting robbing taking

All down to success a man and a pistol

The intent to succeed no matter what

With his drive to rob banks lifting the cash

But its fine the money is insured

Keep your eyes open he’ll hit a bank

Near you and take your savings

Which the bank will pay back

Coz they’re effing rich!            

Let’s rob a bank…

(People think crime is easy and will pay. I often think about this. I knew criminals in the past including robbers and murderers. My dad was a copper. I knew both worlds. It inspired this poem.)
