No More Normal Poem by John Sensele

Within an ace of committing an occasional offence
Think twice lest you should pander to effusive emotions
That you utilize in the defence
Of pathetic predilections and procrastinations in your agile actions.

Within an ace of descending into an abyss
Teeming with miscalculations
Think thrice lest you should kiss
Dust as you surrender common sense to jungle justifications.

Within an ace of embracing a heinous ideology
Think twice before you should take human life
As frugal philosophy gives way to somnolence psychology
That glorifies and celebrates rife strife.

Within an ace of cutting corners
In your romance modus operandi
Think thrice before you run out of partners
As you pander to the deceit, drivel and derangement of a dementia dandy.
