The best kind of writing. Filled with heart. Buy this book. - Amazon reviewer 20 years of experience in retail security led to these observations about why people choose to steal. Within this collection of poems resides tales of desperation, a glimpse at the underbelly of American life, tales of drug abuse, solitude, and the struggle for survival in a world dominated by the almighty dollar. Sizemore attempts to capture the hidden reality of the human condition with these pieces, not shying from the truth, but bringing it out screaming, into the light. Thieves is a brilliant commentary on shoplifting and human desperation. Sizemore's poetry brings raw truth to the surface with beautiful turns of phrase, emotional imagery, and relatable scenes of life. A quick read and very memorable. - Samantha Lazar, author of Reaching Marrakesh
