An interesting yet comical approach to the ABC's of life. I'm still chuckling at some of the lines... Lady Luck is an oxymoron, never trust a dame, was probably my favorite. Good luck in the vote. John

Comment from RikkaLyn
This was a hilarious and creative way to give life advice in an ABC poem. These two lines:"Muscly men with baseball bats deserve your best respecting. Never mess with Mr Big; kneecaps are worth protecting." were my favorite. Good luck in the contest.

Comment from june prescott
Dear Writer,
Wow, a very creative approach to the contest and a very fun poem. It was a great read and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Each line was well thought out and shows a different aspect of being a good burglar. Loved it!

Comment from robyn corum
Except for the one occasional colorful word, I liked it. It was definitely a different take on the ABC's of Life - and I suppose, this may be the rules some folks grow up with. What say we lose the color, though? eh? Otherwise - loved it. Thanks for participating!

Comment from Cobalt Blue
There have been a lot of very ABC's entered into this contest and this is definitely one of them. I like the way you took care of "x". That is a tough one. Well done! This should get some votes!

Great whimsical story,so well done with the prompt. Your "x" letter I would have never thought of. I love the line about 'Lady luck'. If I could lady luck I would wish you the best in the contest! ~Katherine.
