Tambourines & Trampolines Poem by John Sensele

Tambourines and trampolines refine inclines
Tramways and subways subjugate spines
Aspirin and adrenaline decline spates of defeats
Reverses and debacles with neither sweets nor tweets.

Tambourines and trampolines break monotonies
Tramways and subways dare to care for your knock knees
Aspirin and adrenaline desalinate brines
As your throat ingests oats and sips heaps of vintage wines.

Tambourines and trampolines satirize low moods
Tramways and subways lampoon baboons and their fake foods
Aspirin and adrenaline decipher ciphers of your emotions
Ovations, infatuations, oscillations and inhibitions.

Tambourines and trampolines play layers of sweet notes
Tramways and subways recite bites and mites on sites of cavernous quotes
Aspirin and adrenaline like yoyos monitor swings of depression
Brought about by misplaced and displaced impressions in remission.
