John Sensele Poems

A breeze blows
In my life grace glows
When a new day dawns
While my life happiness owns
...

Pieces of charcoal parachuted into the grave
Whose residents shied way from the brave
Who heeded the clarion call
To play the peace plethora ball
...

Lovers will dance, necking
Their unbridled bliss in evidence
As recompense to them will come flying
To reward care and patience fare and share in each incidence
...

Mask on my face
Social distance from my bosom base
Cripple the life I lead
Planting and germinating a seed
...

Little secrets we hide
Little egos we flatter
Little foibles by which we abide
Won't land us honours on a silver platter
...

If I bully my brand
I'm burying my head in the sand
Cruising into perdition
With my behaviour rendition
...

In trouble
On the double
I drive my peace away
Concocting chaos along the way
...

In the cavern
Insanities burn
Frying fragments
Frolicking in undergarments
...

Elmina hustle, bustle and castle
Dehumanisation in every muscle
Rebelling against shipment like chattel
To the Americas where us like charcoal in the jungle
...

A trip in my cell in Hell
Incinerates both my brain and my bell
Awakening to curses circulating in hearses
Where carcasses of collusion clad my verses.
...
