Akin creatures

[Kerbonzo_beenz]

My friend, until the end.
Around the corner, around the bend.

My friend; he is a catch.
Swans swooned over him.
With a key, he would lock the latch.

Looming from behind.
What goes on in his mind?
They wondered.

Thick as thieves.
While others came and went.
Rolled up sleeves.
Secretive in nature.

He was known as Lockjaw Jim in our gang.
He had a certain smirk that crept across his face.
The leader of our group; a wild intensity emanated about him.
If you had a shoe, he would tie your lace.

Petty crime.
Vandalism.
Cigars in back alleys.
Sworn allegiance between all of us.

Electricity; the kind that links together.
The first day we met, we could see it in each others eyes.
Lying dormant for later, we always new it was there though.
Never mentioned, except in the passing glance.

Yesterday we did it: the unspeakable.
They deserved it too.

We stared down that night.
On the horizontal slices of light illuminating our crime.
Akin creatures.
Standing in the shadows.

Well, if this is what I think it's about, this is somewhat dark, and yet, most of us have a friend who has that devilish smile and could get us into a lot of trouble if they really wanted.
