Terrestrial Turmoil Poem by John Sensele

Terrestrial Turmoil



Carelessness kept creeping, carousing, cavorting till
My defenses it drowned in a brown crown
When I dared to divert its daft pill to kill
Tedium, tantrum, temper as my town

Teased tears, bludgeoned bitter tears, tendered its resignation
Letter because I just wouldn't listen
I just kept leaping towards the destruction
That hurtled from my inner insolence and impotence to fasten

Its tentacles on my medulla oblongata
Stifling sensations, stealing stamina, strangling staying power, suffocating sapience
Giggling at Google, lampooning LinkedIn as Sister Immaculata
On her knees kept crawling, crying for persistence

To prevail and unveil my best bravado
As slowly soporific symbols sentenced
For life voices and choices whose commando
Alone without a loan in my brain glanced at terrestrial turmoil and together they danced.
