Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

When nothing more can be said,
To those who won't listen.
Don't want to and incapable of it.
Yet want to tell others,
...

When it is known someone grown,
Has been shown to give recognition...
Undeserving to get it.
Yet sits in a position to provide others,
...

They may be on the right side,
Of their own ancient history.
With it desired to relive.
Complete with updated weapons.
...

Adjusting to confusion.
Adjusting to delusion.
Adjusting to collusion,
With corruption to include.
...

The mundane to remain dull.
In those environments,
Where cows heard to moo...
Seem more exciting,
...

Failure to achieve,
In excessive success of it.
To accomplish as one's goal.
With it to continue,
...

That which continues to be disbelieved,
Gets the attention to be discussed,
On a daily basis.
From Sunrise to Sunset.
...

Distracting traps,
Cleverly used to attract.
With a purpose to have minds focused,
On what one does to repeatedly dislike...
...

If one has never known truth.
Or what it is.
From a time to leave their crib to crawl.
To value the importance of its difference,
...

These days upon us to witness them lived,
Become much more appreciated.
When one awakens to decide,
To be oneself.
...
