Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

People accustomed to rely on 'guardians',
They have annointed to protect them...
From the effects of reality,
Will always discover themselves upset...
...

'IF' truth mattered,
Conflicts to pick would not exist.
Nor would divisions splitting quickly,
Biased by racial differences...
...

How tough is it to be depicted,
As being wise and intelligent?
Hmmm.
That depends.
...

The buy it to get season,
Is nearly coming to an end.
Some with their sugar coated dreams,
Will know to realize them to be fulfilled.
...

An intoxicated greed made so intense,
A sobering to detox from it...
Is becoming 'thisclose' to be considered,
A federal offense.
...

May this Christmas 'eve',
And every 'eve' not be left to leave...
Without remembering to express blessings.
Felt to feel or openly confessed to address.
...

It is difficult to feel a sustained love felt,
24/7.
Unless one is receiving unlimited doses,
Of a medicated treatment administered...
...

A unity to wish without truth to embrace,
And face it...
Is not posssible.
Denials must be stripped away,
...

It's so good to put on,
An attitude to drop...
One old to move on,
With a new one to believe...
...

There is nothing like,
Hearing words heard...
Attributed to be spoken,
By someone else...
...
