John Sensele Poems

Like a vulture cultivate patience skills
Horned into an art beyond a craft
So polished skills kill your bills
As you reach out for your reward raft.
...

Run your race at a sedate pace
With steps primed to succeed
Regardless of faces of stress
Blown your way by an ill-wind.
...

In my mind somber sorties unfold
When morbid movements scar a hundredfold.
Normalcy dead, transparency scared
Empathy bearded, intransigence endeared.
...

Monopolies, duopolies and oligopolies spell danger
Collecting scraps of personal data, averting due tax
Mingling with and tingling a ribald ranger
Displacing, misplacing and suppressing the affable axe.
...

Time richer, more precious than cash
Which once lost finds its way into your wallet
Whereas a second lost can stash
Permanent poverty punishment on your mallet.
...

Megaphone diplomacy disparages diplomacy
Weakens links cultivated at great cost
Only to vanish in the twinkling of a fallacy
Spiced and iced for a tit for tat toast.
...

I don't wanna remember the blues
I feel when your heels trample
My feelings, my dealings as clues
Emerge our relationship no longer serves as an exquisite example.
...

Sad songs surprise my joys
When somber vocabulary my face light up
As I were the little boy in me playing with tender toys
That jump, slump and lump joy in my Cupid cup.
...

Bone to pick with high technology behemoths
Systemic sorority to surrender personal data
To highest bidder whose silver pieces like light lure data moths
To manipulate, disseminate and circulate account holders details later.
...

Doreen, listen to the beat of my heart
As my tears flow in rivers of your telepathy
Woven over time from the start
As our love swims in sympathy and empathy.
...
