John Sensele Poems

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.
...

Make up your mind to mesmerize dangers minor and major
If your deserved destination you should reach
In spite of all perils you dare to glare at in dollops of danger
Inoculated in messages and passages which clouds of doubt preach.
...

I struggle to throw in my towel and pander to despair
As events in the global village dissipate confidence
Inherent in decision making to amend, mend and repair
Lacunae in approaches towards restoring blocks of balance.
...

Two hearts entwined into one heart endorse love
Planned long before hearts realise chemistry
Flows seamlessly beyond the explanation of a dopamine dove
Beyond reason, within human heartbeats far above argument artistry.
...

Crowns of thorns, crowns of pain and strain
Drain beauty and rain frustration
Worsened to a high degree when streams of stress rain
In a heart torn to pieces by malaise and malediction.
...

Relent not, relinquish not, retreat not
When clouds gather, gargantuan gorges multiply
Fears grow, tears travel hot
Cos providence provides graces, blessings and favours in a ceaseless supply.
...

Backs bend, packs of imponderables pend
Stamina stumbles, fatigue fumbles
Dribbles dare, solecisms send
Sleazy signals and in your sky thunder rumbles.
...

Trust abused, trust misused
Churns stomachs and disgusts
When trust is accused
In setting where mistrust encrusts.
...

Tear not bonds in bloom
Fear not independent unions
Dampen not with doom and gloom
Growing relations and ominous opinions.
...
