Prevaricate Not Poem by John Sensele

Prevaricate Not



Prevaricate not when patriotism calls
For reconciliation and affiliation
To dialogue and deliberation through Chipolopolo's bouncing balls
That promote and prioritise dedication and devotion to the nation.

Prevaricate not when national need
Overrides personal preferences and points of view
To scatter and sow the salvation seed
Whether or not you covet a convivial queue.

Prevaricate not when personal prestige
Confronts causes for national notions
Noble enough to veer away from the vestige
Of ephemeral erstwhile enmity emotions.

Prevaricate not when civil summons
Single you out to simplify
Formulas that discourage demons
Whose agenda differences and distortions amplify and magnify.
