The Spies

It started with a fight, the exchange of

punches between the clones. All love

had left the room, now blood dripped

from the words they lipped

each other. Jon pushed Greigh

down the hill running to Bear Bay.

He began his new life

finishing high school in the cold ice

of winter.  Jon then was

approached by some agents revealed by doves

flying through the park. They asked

him to join their mission, a task

that only he could do. When he

said ‘yes’ he knew it would be

a risk but with his brother

now gone he had nothing further

to live for.  A new morning began

with breakfast for man.

Walking into the office, Jon sighed

ready for debriefing but it was a lie

he witnessed when seeing his

face on the screen. “The mission is

for you to impersonate Greigh

something you can do on the way

to Berlin.” Said the director with command

as he asked everyone to stand

up. Jon went on his mission to

Berlin becoming the very person he thought to

be dead. But chaos intervened and

Jon saw Greigh’s face through the demand

of his job. Greigh couldn’t believe the sight

of Jon and they ran for cover with fright.

When madness was over and guns

stopped firing, they were free to use their lungs

to breath. The mission had failed but

Jon promised to make amends and shut

the door of the past. Together Greigh

and Jon became a team, fighting away

for the country they were livin’

for knowing they were forgiven.
