I.

Reclaim signal/from noise. More of it

is communication/than initially seems possible.

Invisible Ink/the message/fades with the moment/

When it’s gone/it’s gone.

More of them are messengers/than initially seems plausible/

Even those/who never speak.

We will help you/if we can.

II.

You may never know/who it is/ultimately

you are working for.

Few, if any, ever do.

May never know/what it is/you are

working towards. Too large to see

more than the merest fraction/and that

in shadows, dim and obscure.

This is the leap of faith/and has led many

to their doom.

No way to wriggle/off this

baited hook. Once you’ve bitten

you’re caught fast.
