Doubles & Trebles

	An ally in exile receives an urgent dispatch
	When he’s already in trouble, unable to relax
	He recognises the cipher, quickly resolves the code
	The contents of the message, state, area and road
	It was as he’d feared, his cover’s been blown
	The extent of the network is now overblown
	Overgrown, the apparatus for such an unwelcome event
	Incommunicado, the last word is sent
	He knows that resistance is futile
	But still he prepares for arrivals
	He sits perfectly still
	Resistance is futile
	He awaits the kill
	He prepares the arrival
	He’s perfectly still
	Resistance is futile
	On arrival for the kill
	He breaks down in this theatre, but hopes not under these lights
	Specifically those which gain strategic insights
	By the best of good fortune, he had provisions in store
	He doubles, then trebles the locks on his door
