Need A Minute?

I took a moment and ran for the door

a time thief that will never be caught

minutes sold at a fraction of their cost

I  will  grab any iota of time left unguarded

nobody will ever catch  me in action.

Does it strike you as odd ,this crime?

Everybody has  wasted a little time

believe me they hardly ever  miss it.

take some time for yourself  you'll see!

Cool thought and...

Cool thought and put together well. You've tightly woven a neat little picture of a time bandit to me. "nobody will ever catch me in action" I like it.
