Within The Comfort Of Your Own Skin Poem by John Sensele

Within the comfort of your own skin, break through barriers
Thrown into your trajectory as you reach out
For prizes and handsome dividends which harriers
Can't stop or delay without a single doubt.

Within the comfort of your own skin, saunter forward
With determination to accomplish missions
Set forth in the book of life to award
You honours and silverware without any temporal or tragic-comic injunctions.

Within the comfort of your own skin, shunt aside fads
Shift into a higher gear
As the target on your radar flashes ads
Intended as smokescreens when you to catch your prey from the rear.

Within the comfort of your own skin, match the best uppercut
An opponent launches to catch your chin
Which you swerve aside as you refuse to be the butt
Of jokes whose fun has worn thin.
