Bones is one sneaky little bugger.  

He’ll come up behind you,
and relieve you of your wallet
just that fast.  

He’s got the good hands
for pulling that kind of stuff
off neat.  

You’ll never feel,
or see a thing.  

His hands are just
that fast and light.  

Bones knows he’s got
the good hands.  

He never lacks self confidence,
and will never lack
the wherewithal to live.

Bobby

Bones better watch his digits
For if in my pocket he be
What he might find are widgits
That will leave him with only three

Livin' on that edge can get you cut deep.

"We'll chase them like rats across the tundra."

Thanks Andrew,

For reading and commenting.

Bones doesn't have an interest in widgets.

Your treatment of Bones has its characteristic idiosyncrasies.  He is a rogue and a victim determined to live no matter what the cost.  In spite of all this he has a mischievous side.

I think you will have to take Bones aside
Bobby and point out the error of his ways.

Being a pick pocket will only lead him into
trouble and we don't want that do we.

  I think that Bones is a little Brat that just likes to tease. You most likely would not take any ones wallet if they handed it to you.   For Shame.

Love 'u stuff  Billie C.

Thanks Lindsay,

I'm afraid I can't really tell Bones not to take things.

Bones does what is necessary.

This sounds like the less of two evils for Bones when it came to earning a living.

Thanks dear Ida,

I think you are right.  It was easier on Bones.

Love Bobby
