Dark times

At the big fountain of Neptune  
In Alexanderplatz  
A throwback to the USSR  
And the Cold War  
   
A fellow mid-thirties sitting there  
Dressed in style for this superb Spring day  
Reclining slightly  
Seemingly  looking towards the red brick Rathaus  
But not quite looking  
Considering that ten minutes earlier  
He was discreetly approached  
By a good-looking woman, his control  
He thought she'd come to give him further instructions  
Instead she used her silencer equipped gun  
And shot him dead.  
   
These were difficult times for double agents  
And are still very risky times  
For spies.
