The Artful Dodger

The Artful Dodger

A Story by Abishai100

A modern real-life 'Artful Dodger' may be the street-expression for human distance(s) to diamond-Ego.

"
A modern telling of the iconic literary 'supporting-character' of Artful Dodger (Oliver Twist - Charles Dickens), which I think you'll find cool, 
DISCLAIMER: This work of literary-adaptation (modern) contains images herein with no specific/legal ties or views to Dickens or the original 'concept' supporting 'street' character or to the modern-day city of Chicago (United States) and therefore is re-presented only as a 'journal-work' of American expression.

Amlan Satan is the real Artful Dodger, prowling the streets of the Bulls-Bears market of the challenging Windy-City (North America), where social-media combines with commercial overground activity to create a darkness in blood-diamond smuggling tied insurance fears/corruption. He'd cast himself as a masked/costumed 'vigilante' with Interpol-relation for disclosures regarding gem-bridges between British Columbia and Northern Ireland in the modern youth-market driven 'chess' culture of the West reflecting a special and even magical 'MTV' street-aesthetic (wow).



ARTFUL DODGER: This is the time of great gem-shine and woe, and I'm to prowl the city-scape with a certain 'IQ for lore($).



Overall, the activity of the great Artful Dodger (Amlan Satan) in the modern city of Chicago had spelled some pretty 'cool' relief-programs for Interpol-relation concerned about the quality of expressions concerning insured diamond motions across the good Earth. In fact, some compared Amlan Satan ('Artful Dodger') to a 'diamond-swap' street-theater rendition of Houdini himself (hmm).

ARTFUL DODGER: A vault is a door to Heaven/Hell, but the macro 'chess' view is one of capitalism-hospitality (for defenses).



He drew a special vigilante-heroine comics-doodle on youth-net for his long-term 'vision(s)' concerning a cyber-homeschooling 'chess' project called New-Activision, but would it come to pass (for social-media 'chess' ideations on the nature of Western 'human' Ego)?



JOURNAL: To retire to coach the nuances of the beauty of chess-play for sportsmanship on the Net is to 'hug' baseball-IQ.



When Artful Dodger attended the iconic Thanksgiving Parade in the Windy-City (North America), he took 'stock' of the thoroughfare/traffic and noted all the magic/novelties of modern commercial overground life tied to media/TV and the upcoming Bears 'event' for capitalism-noted expressions of 'human' performance (tied to diamond-ads on public-access television for immigrants and nonimmigrants alike!).

ARTFUL DODGER: Sportsmanship is required for this game of the city (Windy-City), but the 'lure' need not be pawn-sacrifice.



Artful Dodger never took an 'apprentice' like Oliver-Twist under his wing, remaining a 'lone-shark' in this 'game' of diamond-storyboards. He'd be compared to Artful Dodger (Amlan Satan) rather than James Bond if for nothing but for the nature of the underground 'lyrics' required for insurance-sifting in this modern post-9/11 era of capitalism 'chess' music.
