How had he got here was confused
tired here within little light
fingers so sticky certain not alone
eyes blurry unable to focus
holding a knife in his hand so numb
to what had he succumb?
Soon becoming aware of his quandary
where had he ended up
no knowledge of the circumstances
how a body was at his naked feet
the smell of blood making him queasy
scared and completely uneasy!
Fumbling in the darkness his body sore
found the curtains opening
as brightness blinded his limited vision
eventually eyes focused
exposing the carnage of a gory scene
an ordeal could never have foreseen!
With an effort slowly exited the slaying
leaving footprints behind
out onto a tiled patio where rain fell
striking his body with force
falling to his knees hurting wanted to cry
his actions could not justify!
More alert did not recognise the view
nor the house looked familiar
from behind heard the sound of a car
instinctively made him jump
as it tried to hit him then sped away
on stony surface did splay!
Hardly a moment to stand heard shots
bullets ricochet around him
this jolted new thoughts into his mind
his life was in dire situation
surely he also meant to have expired
but their plot backfired!
Yes it was an undercover operation
had arranged to meet a contact
wife of an international gang leader
went in alone without backup
had to be a trap somehow survived
success of their plan deprived!
Had to get back to his London base
alive his bosses wrath to face!
