Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

No shadow do I hide behind,
That is masked and caped...
To allow my quick escapes.
...

Even I am sometimes on the fence,
With admitting whether or not my commitment...
To my creativity is sincere and real.
Afterall...
...

Something you 'recently' discovered about me,
Gives you a differing opinion that changes things?
And now it is you who pretend,
You don't know who I am.
...

Those mammoth trilogies,
Dramatized to connect...
Similarities between plots and schemes,
As if to sing in three part harmony to excite.
...

Why is it wished that he be replaced?
Your opponents believe he is great!
...

Where there is inconsistency,
There is going to be confusion.
And if confusion is involved,
Conflict will soon be in the mix.
...

People will do everything within their power,
To prevent their own ignorance from being displayed.
Especially if it has been decades,
They have spent comparing themselves to others...
...

If we all had a wish,
To express our gratefulness...
Without hesitating in contemplation.
And just doing this to have it done.
...

Actively and from behind the scenes,
There were those who took it upon themselves...
To ensure his deeds he wished to see accomplished,
Were minimized.
...

What has happened to the slinging of mud event?

'You must be new to the neighborhood?
That event has been moved to a bigger arena.
...
