Restless Poem by John Sensele

Restless



Would I better off
Without a necklace
Being reckless
Being faceless
Being careless
Being merciless
Being feckless
Being a waitress
Being a tigress
Being a seamstress
Sleeping on a mattress
Choosing to buttress
My most useless
Thoughts on ice
Where I kiss
A mistress
Without belittling a songstress
Whose views folks suppress
Until the mass
Media argue ladies misogynists oppress.
Wouldn't it be better if men could caress
Women instead of putting a stress
On how they dress
Or sometimes mess
Up when they address
Issues spinning dice
Or crying foul on the dais
Whose height and price
Just slice
Ramparts were lice
And traders of rice
Peddlers of spice
Can no longer suffice
In the war on the slice
Of a market smugglers keep on ice twice or thrice.
