Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Anyone taking a position,
To have others believe...
Another they had disrespected,
Is sensitive to their doing of it...
...

Without experiencing humiliation,
On a daily basis...
Has there been anyone to have won races,
Admitted to confess...
...

When one leaves love,
Left behind to take it for granted...
What expectations should be kept,
That a love left behind...
...

Generalities have never appealed to me,
Specifically.
They seem to invite indecisive,
And a divisiveness this always feed...
...

I am not here specifically,
To burst anyone's scented bubbles.
Not purposely with intention focused.
Although, frankly, I must admit,
...

Us I like...
From Sunset to Sunrise,
Together.
No matter what the weather brings.
...

I use to be the kind,
To just give away my stuff.
During the time I was convinced,
My willingness to share,
...

A brain one has,
With a mind not used much...
Can be considered as dangerous.
To suspect any thought expressed,
...

Surrounded we are,
By visitors coming from other stars.
More advanced in intelligence,
And far beyond our self-centered limitations.
...

If not for challenge and intrigue,
An interest in the opposite sex...
Would get,
The same response...
...
