Sane Sorority Poem by John Sensele

Love is that little lilly
That stirs senses and steers
Emotions, evanescence and ebullience in Billy
Catapulting commotion that leers

At eyes that say hi
To an unwary heart humming
A tune in June to sigh
When a frivolous feeling

For a moment mesmerizes a mundane mummy
Whose heartbeat and feet fumble
When playing Jean Rummy
Which in a partner's presence proves humble

As Billy brushes aside common sense
In favour of incipient insanity
In whose defence
He surrenders sapience to a sensual sorority.
