Tight In Our Love Delight Poem by John Sensele

Don't clone the zone where your ozone
Rent my heart to pieces
Speaking in a tone
That in my heart dug craters and cut slices

Riddled with pain in words
You uttered
Telling your side plate birds
Mattered

More
Than my welfare did
In the perennial score
That hurt, indeed

As my Waterloo
Drew near
In loops of the loo
Where it became clear

I meant nothing to you
In substance and spirit
As your cruel ubris drew
A slit bereft of merit

In the ozone of comfort
Where you and I first met
With every support
From you I could get

Believing you meant well
For the future we planned
In a mad love groundswell
Adrenaline fanned

Giddy
Awesome
Cindy
As a handsome two-some

Blessed from Heaven
To entwine, wine and dine
Not seven or ten but eleven
Times, love to define, refine and redefine

As an amorous process more nuanced
Beyond shades of black and white
Balanced and influenced
Beneath and above cords that bound you and I tight in our love flight.
