Fences Make Great Neighbors

"Finishing a fence project, and that adage came to mind. Write a fence poem or a neighbor verse."


A three-man operation.
First one is a thief–
empty house situation
or a snatch on the street.

Second man, called a fence,
handles the stolen goods
and hopes there's not a wrench
in his chosen neighborhood.

Pawnbroker is third man,
determines worth of items.
He holds them in his hands.
Shines, displays–someone will buy them.
