Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Revealing who sits in pits with demons,
Is currently being exposed to those...
Who have accepted being ignored and opposed,
And this has not pleased...
...

Thank you for your comments.

Sunny...?
Always think of yourself as a work-in-progress.
Once you believe your have become a 'finished product'...
...

I am often humbled,
By those expressions made
Regarding my thoughts...
With any impressions,
...

Giving in may,
Not be a benefit.
Giving in may,
Just be an excuse to quit.
...

It is fresh if kept,
Away from that which spoils...
Those attitudes,
Quicken to darken by a mood.
...

I see on the horizon,
The lifting of mist...
From a fresh morning dew.
...

To vent obscenities,
Seems today to be in vogue.
And just yesterday,
My expressed embitteredness...
...

Those remaining,
In the playing of their silly games...
In a sustained immaturity,
Find themselves wishing to undo...
...

Intellectual property.
Often to be claimed stolen,
From the ones who are...
Skillful plagiarists.
...

What I have done,
Personally...
To ensure the new neighbors,
Adhere to policies that have been in effect...
...
