World Gone Mad Poem by John Sensele

World Gone Mad



World gone mad,
Promote good girls' education;
They shoot you in the harmless head and promise
To wipe out your clan contribution,
Proclaim idle ideology and vaunt vain vicissitude
As well as corny and cruel creation.

World gone mad,
Object to their azure activities;
They accuse you of evil ethno-phobia
And of pandering to pro-poor proclivities
To rape rare resources, to kill the enfeebled Earth
Until they finance fetish-festooned festivities.

World gone mad,
They bind blind boys and gangling guerillas
To pillage peasantry plots of prurient pumpkins
Together with seedy stocks of truculent tortillas
Which they peddle at peacock prices
To replace their faceless frigate flotillas.
