spies and dopplegangersA Poem by fred(Of spies and doppelgangers) Bedford Bank holiday Monday
Those two on the bridge by the weir As we drew near Parted, from that I surmised They must be spies. Said so to Laura at the time She looked at me askance. Her “lets humour dad “glance So I patiently explained to her in rhyme Sound of water rushing, Drowns out conversation. Christ You see it in movies all the time Flashed my Michael Caine smile Ipcress file style Then I had a vision, Hallucination if you will Of a human chameleon lounging lizardly by the wall. A reptilian Harold Wilson Soaking up the sunshine, And by the boathouse, Roy Orbison, who Had just been grown A test tube clone Cos, he looked so shiny and new. Turned then expecting to see A sign upon a tree Saying welcome to the body snatchers jamboree.
