50 Words For Poe: Blue Skies
"50 Words for Poe: Blue Skies"
She was dressed to kill
Hot like a blazing Australian Bushfire
She crackled with heat as she
sashayed through the entrance
like Summer towards him,
Like she was painted in
Gold Lame Mesh
Armour tight,
the fabric flimsy and
sensationally short
stretched over very special
killer covert agent curves
all long legs
Le Lido Crazy Horse
all the way up to there
well you know where
hazel green hawk eyes
piercing lasers fixed on him
The place was pumping
High Rollers flipping decks
all buzzing, well manicured
escorts blood red vermilion talons
at their elbows, whispering sweet nothings
in their ears, like,
“I think She’s arrived, She’s here”.
The Cross-Dresser
smiled with delight
next to Her,
he was schmick in his suit
tonight, quite debonnaire,
you can’t judge a book by it’s cover
ain’t that the truth
ain’t that just right
He whispered in her ear,
“Agent à 12 heures l'heure bleue.
Le merle noir.
Il faut se méfier.”
Columbus had transfigured
as is his want, tonight,
very handsome in a
Wolfish sort of way
not a flea in sight
She kept Her eye on the prize
He thought he was
The Collector
Double agent run amok
Someone had to "collect" him
She’d been sent on OHMSS by “M”
He was known in this world
as "Mr Blue Skies"
Of course the place was infested with
Double agents run amok
Live and Let Live
Do or Die
Mission not accomplished just yet
She had a game to play
Chips to bet
Stir up some heat
Stir up some fun
"They're a twisted lot like that" she mused,
"Bent Stalkers, White and Dark Hats, Uber Vixens and Spies"
Back to the matter at hand
There was the matter
of “taking out”
Mr Blue Skies
She took his hand and smiled
“M” had sent Her
Another 50 Word code to crack,
a new story begins
The outcome a gamble,
The outcome a huge risk,
The outcome not guaranteed nor set
but cards marked & fixed
The Dossier back in the room,
in the Cross-Dresser's closet had read -
The Mission: PARIS, MacGuffin
Code -
Asylum 666: The Birds, Bee, Fox and Blue Skies
Mission accepted,
target now engaged
course set.
