~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~~Infiltrator

He had taken painstaking care
to draft the plans to go to specs,
so how was he tied to this chair,
his blood slickened the earthy decks?

He swore it felt like he had been
abandoned for 300 years,
voice in the night his only friend,
those dreams of hugs and childhood tears.

Then panic spoke up from his bones,
which ached with utter agony,
these flashback are but fear, ingrown,
come to the now for clarity.

The scientist was at his desk,
instruments of evil genious
scattered across in such a mess
it seemed to be his sole business.

He popped his shoulder out with pain
that made him bite his lip to stop
a scream that would have made in vain
the loss of all those crimson drops.

As he unwrapped the ropes that bound,
he thought back to his horroscope
the morn before he left for this
mission impossible to Hell.

You have great skill with hand and eye,
hit scientist with the drainpipe,
and know that he will surely die,
your lucky number today is 5.

He picked the pipe up with his fist
and brought it down hard with a ring
upon the villian's genious head,
left the mark of Smithe pipe and steam.

He ran away up makeshift stairs,
and with a wince, met sunlights glare,
to find a helicopter there,
exit from the underground lair.

He didn't quite know how to fly,
but then again, he thought with mirth,
he sure as hell knew how to die,
and so he gave the plan its birth.

He took off just a bit too fast
and damned near snapped his neck in half.
He wondered if he'd need a cast
when he got home to bed and bath.

He flew for hours until he saw
the stars and stripes, a wondrous sight,
but he was yet in the jackal's paw
as a missle launched into flight.

It snaked, he snaked, but still a tail,
alas the gap had shortened so
he grabbed his parachute and bailed
and looked behind to watch it blow.

He drifted to the enemy,
then drifted deftly back to home,
a couple shots went by his feet
but to his heart they never roamed.

He landed with a jolt and laughed,
he hugged the flag, and with it wiped a tear,
and answered when a soldier asked
"Sir, just what are you doing here?"

"I've killed a man whose heart was coal,
that was my mission and I hope
that will reflect upon my soul,
the day I hang from knotted ropes."
