RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: GLOBAL POLITICS
The Mole
An agent of the FBI
On the take of the Kremlin
A high-placed Putin spy
Strikes the heart like a gremlin
Our intelligence, ears and eyes
The integrity of our nation
Our knowledge of our enemy’s lies
Served up by invitation
It has become more than clear
Our services need a purge
We will realize our worst fears
Like a patriotic dirge
People planted in careers
Who betrayed us for their greed
People trusted and endeared
A betrayal grown from seed
It all seems strange and weird
But we must follow where it leads
It is time to weed them out
Track them down like rabid dogs
Let them stand up to the doubts
Check their records and their logs
Until we know what it’s about
There is no one we can trust
Let no one in and no one out
Until we’ve finished up the bust
(Note: A Kremlin agent discovered
in the FBI hierarchy.)
