Cophine in haiku

by Cophinaphile

Something I tried... very small time commitment on your part... deceptively longer on my end! LOL The plan is to try to explore the entire canon story in this format. An experiment: is possible to capture the glory of "Cophine" in a series of impossibly small vignettes (with a forced structure)? Why? Curiosity and I like a challenge. reviews: always appreciated :)

3. Chapter 3

xi.

Keep your friends close and

your enemies closer. "She

doesn't know I know."

xii.

Another dress falls

Discarded, crumpled, unfit

For spy versus spy.

xiii.

knock, knock, knock. She's here.

Despite myself, I pause to

palm my foolish grin.

xiv.

"kind of always late,

so kind of always sorry."

I don't mind waiting.

xv.

I see Cosima,

deep roots, a supple stem and

phototropic hands.
