Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

If the path you walk upon,
Has been cleared of brush...
You may find your journey easier,
With less urgency to rush.
...

Diss your issues that you've got with me.
I'm not about them!
Stop and dropp 'em.
...

I'm sure they will remember how easy it was,
To take from others and then split.
I'm sure they will remember the method used,
To remove identities to successfully indoctrinate.
...

To turn an inherited cesspool,
Into a prize winning Rose garden...
Is going to take a lot of time.
Especially when the users have spent...
...

If it was never what it was.
Quilled in ink,
To seep in sacred parchment.
Or upheld as it should have been,
...

Sobered.
By the arrival,
Of the meaning of life.
And snipped away...
...

Just a few topics left...
To choose by the hosts of radio talk shows.
They do their best to discredit leaders selected.
Especially those of competence!
...

They would like it,
With cream and berries
Topped with a lollipop!
...

Who lied and told you life,
Was an easy process?
Who tried to shield you from the truth...
Must be on new 'meds'.
...

I have prohibited my eyes,
From dripping to drop another tear.
Or allow my ears to hear,
Your assessment of where it is 'I' should be.
...
