SPY VIBE HAIKU

SPY VIBE HAIKU
A writing challenge for Spy Vibers! Write a 1960s spy-inspired Haiku poem and share it on the message board at the Spy Vibe website. A Haiku is traditionally three lines long, with alternating syllables (5-7-5). They often allude to the season and capture a snapshot of observation and inner stirrings. Post as many as you wish. It will be fun to see what people do with it. Here is my first one to get things started:

humid night champagne
a knife tucked under the sleeve
sparring with madmen
