Cesspool Of Indignity Poem by John Sensele

A way of life teeters towards a cesspool of insanity
When its tenets, helmets and bayonets unleash infirmity
To propagate, elongate, elucidate an ideology of murder
Plunder, blunder, under-think, group think and slander

Centred around a mythology empty of intellectual content
Assuming proportions of toxicity and duplicity with intent
To invade all corridors of decency, recency and mercy
Cut out, dug out, crashed, bruised and smashed in order to free

Horrors, monsters, hamsters, hipsters, tricksters from straitjackets
That for long held them in check to prevent their packets
From contaminating the environment where their breath
Filled with rancour, misdemeanour, anger, danger and stealth.

A way of life edifies life when it multiplies friendship
Propagates stewardship, readership, leadership and kinship
At home, at church, at work, at leisure and at a golf club
Where humanity and amity become the cornerstone near or away from a pub.
