Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Get me back,
On that right track
Baby.
I kept myself delayed,
...

I am so grateful,
That your perceptions of who I am...
Has nothing to do with me at all.
And who it is I know myself to be.
...

You will find me.
And when you do,
I will be as intriguing to you,
As an interlude.
...

Offbeat but a rhythm keeps,
Doing what it should.
With a doing that it could be...
Offbeat,
...

That beat.
Sometimes I lose that beat.
That natural beat that's in me.
And my...
...

It is true.
I confess.
I have been spoiled.
And My Father,
...

Big, bigger, bigger, big, big, big!
Big are they in the making,
Of a raucous that disrupts.
And...
...

They are aweful,
Disgusting and despicable creatures.

'Your children or mine? '

Not ours.
...

People only see what they choose to see.
And at their convenience.
Even though what is seen has been there,
And observed by others for many years...
...

Is the fresh dew appearing,
On the backside of a thoroughbred horse...
Any indication,
That this horse stays prepared to run a race...
...
