Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Addressing limitation,
Can be compared to expectation.
What one has in mind achieved...
Is rarely challenged,
...

I have long been in and out,
Of the boxing ring.
My kid leather gloves,
Have been starched and propped...
...

For many years I did my best,
To be objective.
With attempts to reject...
My own introspective thoughts.
...

'It can not get any worse than this! '

I've heard that expressed many times,
Over the years.
...

I'm not apologizing for my comments or actions.
And I do not think it disrespectful to call them fools.
They solicited 'my' response.
...

Mother Nature is no longer,
In accordance with our abuses.
Her tolerance once given to us,
Has been evidenced to have gone.
...

Your depictions are not precise.
And clearly quickly put together to impress,
'With' defections.
...

I've never thought of it endearing,
To undermine someone else.
With an assassination done to defame...
Is a sickness that should not be welcomed.
...

If one loves what one does...
Nothing will interfere.
The only thing that can stop this desire,
Is amnesia.
...

Trees should be leisured.
And given our priority.
Treated as if royality.
Without them no one breathes.
...
