Lawrence S. Pertillar Bondage Poems

Being released from a mental bondage needless to keep,
Although once a condition accepted and perceived to represent...
A respecting of others in an environment which restricts,
Individual expressions expected to fit...
...

People who have tolerated,
Their own excuses to make...
To find this mistake,
Has left them surrounded by fools...
...

They find themselves in acceptable bondage.
Feeling complete and shackled,
With a dignity and pride...
Only money and the absence,
...
