John Sensele Poems

A limpid love, not meant for barbaric blame
With a caring heart, empathetic attitude
And a bedside manner inscribes her name
In my heart in her heavenly handwriting with gratitude
...

Deceit flew his Lie and its fly
To the pavilion in Lyon
Where Truth called it uncouth for Lie
Daring to declare innocence to a million
...

When, to my consternation, I insist on infatuation
Couched in coquettish conspiracy
Designed, demented and devoted to the evaluation
Domiciled in domestic dysfunction, I object to obduracy and piracy.
...

Stun surprise before it pounces
To scatter your plans
Alongside drudgery in zillions of ounces
In your academics, gymnastics and in your verisimilitude vans.
...

Eyes, spare me your roving risk
As you scrutinize curves and contours
Dressed in outfits that frisk
The most determined minds on tours.
...

Beer bruises the brain
Wine wows whims
Methanol mystifies your strain
Water adds to wholesomeness creams.
...

Out of sight, out of service
Meant to mollify minds
Cleaned up from a crevice
To isolate inputs of disservice.
...

A heart heaving hard next to nihilism
Swears serenely to break free
From the bondage of brigandism and weak witticism
At the count of three under a glee tree.
...

Don't come on too strong because of propinquity
Brought by our place of work
Where colleagues refrain from iniquity
Lest they justify a jinx jerk.
...

Don't allow your heart to harden
Despite provocation from a maiden.
Love strive to give,
Trespassers find time to forgive.
...
