Rambles Of A Fractious Fumble Poem by John Sensele

Don't break through open doors
If you should receive God's blessing
Lifting you up from floors
Where in haste and disobedience you could only sing

The blues
Wallowing in fantasies
With no clues
How to access ecstasies

God grants in the timetable
He implements for you and I
When we abandon the fable
In which we perpetuate the lie

We can forge ahead
In romance, marriage, education
Idolizing icons instead
Of consolidating the application

Scriptural tenets promote
To lead us during our pilgrimage
On Earth as we devote
Pride of space not to the image

We build in sin
But bending our knees in prayer
If we should win
Fortunes God pours into our lives layer upon layer

Beyond our wildest expectation
Every moment of God's choosing
As long as we denounce affectation
In circumstantial supplication in which we cut off boozing

Among other vices
Opting to follow Jesus Christ
Instead of clinging to sensational slices and rolling dubious dices
Playing the avarice avatar priest

Robbing the poor
Exploiting the vulnerable
Beating our chests in a cocksure
Display of the fractious fumble.
