Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

When truth becomes a negative aspect,
Of one's reality.
And it solicits unwarranted snide remarks?
Danger is embraced!
...

So much of my life
Has little of you in it!
For you to insist
Your role is larger than that...
...

That train has gone.
The one you are trying to catch,
To keep up!
The one delayed...
...

It took years to close a door
that should not have been opened.
Now that the action has been finalized...
There is knocking.
...

Which bland existence
Has a bigger fan base?
A dollar worth less,
Than half of its value...
...

For fun
They ruined the happiness for some.
Believing an accomplishment
To them would come!
...

Don't get erratic
Like the people in the streets.
I say emphatically...
Help them protest
...

With publicity accomplished.
And a promotion hyped,
By all types of media.
These dastardly deeds,
...

You don't know me like you think you do.
Snoopy.
Even though I given up to you so many clues.
And...
...

I am tired of boxing cocky foxes,
With their sweetened smiles and greased tongues.
I'm through with slinging to fling mud in the ring,
With a fighting against those sly who lie...
...
