John Sensele Poems

From nowhere, a hermit without a permit quit
Quit from rivers of raucous reasons
Which for him meant his defeat couldn't fit
Despite efforts and escorts of all sorts in successive seasons.
...

Kiss of life, lift my veil
Caress my contour, come to my crib
Kiss of life, don't let me fail
Because you hail from my right rib.
...

Human nature shines light on the heartbroken
Whose tears and fears decorate days
Spent in despair and in sorrow unspoken
When heartbreaks mark Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays.
...

From where I wander and weep redemption rescues robbers
Who express remorse
Pledge to move from ruffians to probers
Of hurt as they dismount from their odious horse.
...

Seek sobriety, seek salvation
Wherever you live
Whatever your reaction to provocation
Empathy always give.
...

Diss ditherers
Who quit when heat
Hurts horses and minces murderers
No longer fancy fabulous feet.
...

Mellow mood from my home
I bow down at your feet to tweet
I admire you, mellow mood, move away from Rome
Cos I long to meet you, to savour your sweet.
...

The heart broken into for the umpteenth time
Pulled itself together
Withdrew into its cocoon where a sublime
Thought told the heart to give up romance altogether.
...

Back to the sender any maleficent matter
Concocted in concealed corner conferences
Where conspirators collected clutter
To increase chances of deleterious differences on either faces of fences.
...

My head, surf with care the maze
Where the labyrinth loses her contour
To ensnare the gullible into a daze
From which once entrapped there's no detour.
...
