John Sensele Poems

Save souls, empathize
When blues bludgeon buddies
Dealing them crazy cards that you hardly analyze
Titillating at their tumults and tragedies.
...

Bothersome breaks bridge burrows
Between a pesky past and fruitful future
Ensuring a smooth sailing serenade from furrows
That covet a comfort and convenience culture.
...

Into your life, don't attract angels of ire
From your life, excise fallacy feeds and sarcasm seeds
Lest you set your empire on fire
Dispersing at high celerity, winds of weevils and weeds.
...

Peace at the start, peace at the end
Peace when tumult and trouble tinker with your door
Peace when tawdry tunics and polyester patches you mend and blend
Peace calms catastrophes when you lie on a fatigue floor.
...

Erase phases of pride
That from you drive friends away
Too tired with you to enjoy another ride
When despite a plethora of sins you wouldn't pray.
...

Assail travails of lassitude
When your heart tires
Reverting to the certitude
That without fail your destiny retires.
...

What I have won I can't measure
When from the bottom of my heart flows gratitude
Which generates as much pleasure
As can flow from my right attitude.
...

Three days in my bed renew vitality
Rejigs my plans
Redesign the humility and maturity
I ascribe to ardent Arsenal fans.
...

Some mistakes avoid
If your life should grow straight
When a needless void
You shunt aside, dispensing of a Castle lager crate.
...

A jilted juvenile-heartbroken and hassled-wonders why
She falls for umpteenth time for a player
Whose prime purpose lies in making her cry
When the punk wears the cap of a soul slayer.
...
