hiding things

you drop the mask
down over your
face and fire
up the blow torch
because you've lost
the combination
to your safe
where you keep
all your valuables
except for
the ones that
you hide beneath
your bed
and the ones behind
the false
drawer of the sea
chest in the attic.
oh, and then
there's lock
box behind
the portrait of
your grandmother
who was also very
secretive
and forgetful.
not to mention a few
thing buried
in the back yard,
but the map
is in the safe,
so you have
to get busy.
