Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Through 'everything'...
There are eyes that see.
The only kept hidden,
Is what one perceives to believe.
...

Someone making frequent attempts,
To compensate for a laziness...
And lack of discipline,
With a making of false claims on others.
...

When I am not in the mood,
To accept third party invitations...
In is with the same respect I am shown.
...

Each day presents,
Another opportunity to vent!
Doesn't it?
And why throw away an opportunity?
...

One reluctant to sting,
May choose to do so...
With a stinging done to stun,
Those stung...
...

Once one has paid their dues,
Not too many will attempt...
To prove it to others,
With the giving out of samples to taste.
...

Some folks are just unavoidable,
No matter what is done.
But an avoidance must be attempted...
Or their evilness intended,
...

Oh well...
While we are in the 'scheme' of things.
And why those schemes,
Bring so much importance to some.
...

Be you one of caution,
When a flaring temper goes off.
The fumes of it...
Will and can spit foam,
...

Those who DON'T care about themselves,
Just let-them-be.
Let them be.
...
