Balance Your Stance In The Distance Poem by John Sensele

Break free of the coast of boast
Bruise the ambit of annoyance
When with much respect you toast
Friendship, its fragrance and flamboyance.

Break free of the boat of boredom
Bruise the booze of ruse
When with integrity you rule the kingdom
Where friendship and companionship catalyze a camaraderie cruise.

Break free of the charmless chalice
Bruise the back of vitriolic violence
When from the cup of malice
You cultivate influences of insolence.

Break free of fruitless friendship
Bruise the cruise of jealousy
When in your heart grows the stewardship
Teeming with lacunae of mercy.

Break free of envy
Bruise braids of evil
When in your mind grows the sentiment scurvy
That hastens the gargantuan grip of the devil.
