Too Late To Cry Poem by John Sensele

When grounded, hounded and pounded regrets sounded too hollow
Time belittled and blasted time wasters
Because progress and prosperity declined to follow
Worn paths and baths dedicated to failure masters.


Time belittled and blasted time wasters
When wrath rose to a crescendo towards
Worn paths and baths dedicated to failure masters
In time for retribution to wipe away vestiges in regret wards.

When wrath rose to a crescendo towards
Indolence, impotence, incontinence and impertinence
In time for retribution to wipe away vestiges in regret wards
Where time wasters sought refuge, concealing shame behind insolence.

Indolence, impotence, incontinence and impertinence
Because progress and prosperity declined to follow
Where time wasters sought refuge, concealing shame behind insolence
When grounded, hounded and pounded regrets sounded too hollow.
