Bias & Bigots Poem by John Sensele

Strategies crumble and ramble when refugees
Scatter helter skelter in the Mediterranean Sea
Drenched in trenches of terror and horror allergies
Induced by hunger, thirst, anger and dearth of tea.

Strategies fumble when internally displaced persons
In Juba and Mogadishu flee settlements
As mortar shells and maleficio bells toll for parsons
Whose best efforts in test forts design peace implements.

Strategies bungle and struggle when war mongers
Merchants of death and rabble rousers
Profit from follies, bullies and foreign fish anglers
Overcatch tilapia and bream and donate threadbare trousers.

Strategies dabble in shambles when double
Standards boast of goal post shifts in duplicity diplomacy
Turning a blind eye to devalued Rouble and ill-valued trouble
Hustled with blatant bias by sentries whose unfairness you can't see.
