Best Spy Poems

On the wall of a house I might be
Owned by *Brangelina Jolie.
There’s no real reason why.
I’m just one nosy fly.
Not to mention, Brad nude I might see!

House to house in each fine neighborhood
I’ll spy like a super fly should.
An “enquiring” mind,
Lots of scandal I’ll find.
As...

Fantasy Spy

Would that I, like a Monarch butterfly,
Could fly across the fertile land and spy,
Top tree and lilac bush in the evening hush,
Swooping down above the late traffic crush.

Then on to foamy shores I would wander,
Over firs and pines, dark forests below,
With graceful freedom across...

There was once an old woman,
Who lived in a small village,
Her name was Matilda Schoeman
Like Popeye, she only ate spinach!
One day she went to her Pastor,
To confess that her neighbor was
Always nude,
This is a chapter
Of my life I don’t want to end
Father, am I being...

I knew a spy who told me her truths.
She told me her lies so I could never surmise where the line lies, the line of the spy. The words and the eyes. The live and the die. The strange life it must be, the life...

Hoping around the colorful flowers
Butterflies perform dance for hours
Floating across the plain blue sky
They act as the archangel's spy

If they spot us grieve 
Their feather colors they leave
Paint our monchrome thoughts bright 
And make our worldly tensions light

If they see us smile 
They too join...

The clime without poets is like the soulless desert
Poets drew their dreams in the words of the mind
The morning without poets is like a sunless night.

Without dreams we have nothing to get high
Poets play with dreams and they are cool spy.
Poets bring the sunshine where...

Meet Dorothy the donkey
she has a weird googly eye,
when she’s staring straight at you
you will either laugh or cry.

For you see, whenever she
seems to be gazing ahead,
her crazy googly eye is
looking to her side instead!

If you think she can't see you,
you forgot her googly eye;
hard...

She descended from a far away land
I was from the backwoods
She was my life and death
I was her lover boy

They taught me simple things
Beware of seductive pretty strangers
How to drive a car very fast and true
How to meander as a tourist in blue

To drop a...

Sonia Esmee Florence Butt   ( work in progress )

The year 2014 comes to a close
Another unsung hero passed on, from a time long ago
Poets free to express our thoughts
Due to the bravery of Sonia D'Artrois

The day was may 28, 1944
A parachute and Sonia...

It's scary dangerous out there,
     this world sure feels so unsafe
There's constant conflict, uprisings and strife
Got me beefing up home security,
     increasing my life insurance annuity
Me even had to start extreme vetting my wife

It's uber hazardous out...

As a fly on the wall of Larry's domain

I would witness first hand the cause of his pain

        Once I saw what I saw

        Larry's Mother-in-Law

I'm sure that  I'd never...

Spy vs. Poet - pen trickery

(A collaborative poem by Serena Storm and Joel Thornton)


Dissimulating cloak – an apocryphal script 
Ah, I see "I" the spy has stumbled upon new tricks 

Disloyalty - The Perfidy - eye-witness – an errant scheme 
Perhaps errant- perfidious? A joke!...
