Fences And Senses Poem by John Sensele

Strike a balance between fantasies,
Reality, liberty and action
Meant to address ecstasies
Felt when minds leap into inaction.

Strike a balance between chances,
Advances, glances and pranks
Meant to show how many ounces
Sneak into lives to prick lances.

Strike a balance between jealousy,
Legacy, fantasy and total disregard
Meant to douse the supremacy
Inherent in slashing the pittance of a concubine's guard.

Strike a balance between greed,
Deed, meade and home expenses
Meant to streamline the feed
For smooth operations within home fences.
