Routine of a Cheap Thug

Your actions are profoundly similar,
To the routine of a cheap thug.
Your posture is attached to a suspiciousness.
And your attraction to snoop...
Does not invite a relaxation into my environment.
And your comments of resentment confirms my sentiments.

Regardless of your good intentions,
Your close inspection of my valuables...
I somehow do not need.
Unless you are preparing for your return?
And this is your way of showing me,
An unsolicited protection.
And I need not concern myself with giving you a key!
