Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Some of you may become disappointed,
Your requests go unheeded.
With an attention sought...
You may believe deserved.
...

Focus,
You may never have a chance to start again.
Focus,
There's no promises to end what just begins.
...

You need not ever worry.
Or express a moment of concern,
If I am going to return to you...
Anything that I have borrowed.
...

You can say it and run.
Say it and run.
About what's been done.
You can say it and berate it.
...

There are those who seriously do not understand,
How it works!
The wilfull hurting of someone else.
...

Not a problem currently existing,
Can be seriously fixed...
To be revealed as is and dealt with!
Not if a continuous running away from it,
...

Sitting mellowed out or not upon a couch.
With a peace one has,
Or has stopped.
All are finding,
...

Interpretations of what has not been expressed,
But publicly addressed as a making of a threat...
And discovererd to be nothing more,
Than a friendly exchange one hides to ignore.
...

The hardest fight anyone awakened today faces,
With attempts to eliminate...
Is against the overwhelming presence of mediocrity,
And those protecting their love for abundant ignorance.
...

Oh I wish somebody would,
Just...
Take my heart and unlock it.
Yes...
...
