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.
