Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Come to your poppa,
Boy!
I'm going to tell you,
What poppa expects.
...

Expect to get contrast.
From a point of view encompassing it.
Because there is contrast,
Everywhere there and here where few may sit.
...

It doesn't matter who else expresses what.
If you've got it.
Just flaunt your stuff.
...

Don't flip through pages so quick to age.
There is a phase and a process to it.
Don't flip through pages so quick to age.
One day you'll wish you sat through it,
...

Look at me.
And look at what I've got.

'Which is? '

Things.
...

A mighty fortress provides my God.
Against intruders perpetrating their conflicts.
And inside I am comforted with the knowing of it.

My experiences and tested faith has proven to me,
...

Everyone has a wish,
To influence with their unsolicited opinion.
Until Mother Nature arrives,
With a getting of all the attention...
...

There is one fact that isn't often practiced.

People who disagree,
With others who always seem to be right...
...

It is getting increasingly obvious,
Who the foolish people are.
And the support they are receiving,
By those who follow blindly behind...
...

Remember...
There are worse things that can happen,
Than a receiving to get criticism...
With a listening to sit through it.
...
