Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

So foolish are the movements of man to believe,
What man has made and created is accepted...
By the spiritual deities.
Patiently in their magnificence they watch,
...

Doesn't it seem as if those most delusional,
Are those in public protesting their rights.
Shouting their dislike for the 'aliens'...
Crossing their borders,
...

You willfully played the wrong ones cheap.
The dangling carrot you chased,
Had no benefits for you to reap.
...

Sex and a serious obssession with the 'self',
Has mobilized today's youth to view standards...
With aging values degraded as pointless.
Unless they are collectively being solicited,
...

It is commendable of him...
Professing to take full responsibility,
For the actions of thieves initiating disasters.
...

The joy of taking chances,
Is the realization no obligation...
Or a hint of commitment,
Has been exchanged with anyone.
...

So excited I am with life.
On certain days when I awaken,
I vow to invest my sights and thoughts...
Into perceiving all things God has created,
...

What 'is' unfortunate?
The capitalization of the word DENIAL.
And the tremendous affect the act of it,
Has had on the millions of those who have been shown...
...

Salty tears.
Flowing down on cheeks.
Faces so young and adorable.
...

You want me to apologize?
OKAY...
I apologize.
...
