Sense Sonnet - Chiller

Spy Seal

President Truman did okay
The seal to do the deal to spy
Around the world - the C.I.A.
Except U.S. - that's F.B.I.
The seal shows and eagle and shield,
And on the shield, a compass rose
With sixteen points supposed to yield
The secrets of the U.S. foes.
A fancy word - intelligence
Tattled back to a central spot,
Sorted by assorted agents,
Maybe the truth and maybe not.

Central Intelligence Agency,
The C.I.A. - spying legally.
