Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

You can make it better!
If you insist that it is.
By getting better,
With a doing more of it!
...

Wouldn't it be easier,
To schedule your dilemmas?
Prioritizing them for effectiveness.
Leaving those you know will repeat,
...

Why is it that those,
Once having no time to give to others...
Whether freely donating from their hearts or not,
Seem as if they have more of it.
...

Many wish for...
Love.
Many wish,
But do not get...
...

Sad? Feeling bad?
Why?
Who picked and selected,
All that you now have?
...

How can we seek solutions...
When our denials love to bask,
In a pleasing done by deceit.
...

Speak up I can't hear you,
With those mumbles done.
Do you seek my attention,
With those mumbles done.
...

Why are you doing that?

'In the celebration of Black History Month.
This is the only time of the year,
...

Once done...
And in retrospect,
As one reflects!
Being ostracized,
...

It has become very easy for 'some' social misfits...
To blame their insecurities,
And atrocious misdeeds...
On the lack of attention given to them,
...
