Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Aggressively,
They are campaigning for him to fail.
Without comprehending...
He is the only one left,
...

You approached me to ask a question.
And taking my time to listen...
With a response I had hoped,
You would comprehend.
...

I believe we have encountered,
A bit of misunderstanding.
Although I would love to participate,
With the same enthusiasm as you have shown...
...

I wish you the best.
Those who are stuck in routines!
And those with priorities,
Living on deadlines...
...

Often,
I feel softened!
And embedded deep!
Bolted to an awareness...
...

We say we pray,
For forgiveness and clarity.
When we are forgiven and the clarity comes...
We become disbelievers.
...

The catastrophe of delusion,
Conquered into submission.
And defeated by undeniable truth...
Wounds the minds of many!
...

Someone knows 'someone'
Who has been quick to express disappointment,
Regretted.
...

Anytime you find yourself outside.
Think of me...
As close,
Inside!
...

If I 'have' whatever it is to give.
And you 'have' but to give not!
Which one of us eventually,
Can claim to have more?
...
