enemy in the wire

[[ I meant "enemy in the wire" in the military jargon sense of having an enemy within the perimeter fence (wire), but also to hint at listening in on the wire: electronic eavesdropping or even voyeurism. ]]

now that we all live 
life on the line

now we will all have 
an enemy in the wire 

sniffer in 
my underthings
have a whiff 
of this

enemy in the wire,
listening to me,
my classified admirer
hiss of the, kiss of the, hiss of the snake in my tree

eye to the keyhole
ear to the wall
finger in bunghole
tongue running, tongue running, tongue running over it all

enemy in the wire,
listen to me:
we will always 
be your enemy 

little breather on the phone
little voice behind the drone
you're nothing to the knife
