Love Conquers Cockerels & Mackerels Poem by John Sensele

Love conquers coquettes and cockerels
Flying flags of infatuation
Fiddling with mackerels
Filling in idle time with a mundane mission.

Love seals chemistry
Between two hearts that heat in tune
To each other in a tapestry
So elusive to observers in June.

Love fills spaces and blanks
With frank adulation, roaring emotion,
Fast beating feelings, emotional pranks
Longings to crush a partner on a trembling chest in a second's fraction.

Love liquidizes adrenalin
In every vein
In a besotted queen free of sin
When from love's magnetism she struggles in vain.
