The Attempt (Invisible Challenge)

Yes, crime doesn’t pay. I’m proof, you see,

For my efforts had gained me a well-placed knee.

I tripped and I stumbled, my vision was blurred.

I held fast to my booty: I would not be deterred!

Through the indifferent crowd, I determined to flee.

And that’s when I saw them coming right for me.
