Jack stored the cloth

in the bottom of his rucksack,

feeling it lift the straps

from his shoulders,

cutting into his armpits

in a bid for freedom.

He was useless with a needle

so decided he would

cut it into strips

and tie them around

his waist, legs and arms

when the time came.

He left the dead giant,

his next move

forming in his mind

and making him sigh with guilt.

He needed to steal.
