Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Before...
When I denied myself,
The right to be happy.
I was told that was being selfish.
...

What are you doing?

'Savoring 'each' moment.'
...

To say that something had been known.
Prior to it affecting with dire results manifested.
To sit and have this pondered...
As a study of it was being done to process its effectiveness?
...

Whose misfortune is being commonly shared?
Behind a pomp and circumstance,
Without self examination being there.
But in delusions spared.
...

WE are within it!
This Universe.
This entity.
Thinking and expanding
...

Ding.
Dong.
Ding.
Dong.
...

I don't mean to be offensive.
But I do believe...
People who make mistakes,
At someone's expense...
...

Many more will make public announcements,
That their deceits kept discreet...
Are no longer secret.
And on decline.
...

Did you purposely,
Block my access?
So I can stay away,
From my assets?
...

Fundamentally?
You and I,
Are on the same page.
Reading the same text.
