Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Opps!
Caught in the middle of being super critical.
Opps!
Caught in the middle of being super critical.
...

Those who believe,
They have been chosen to lead...
But never have shown the competence,
Are themselves now facing...
...

They wanted him to take action.
They wanted him to express an accountability.
And in the process,
Voices of opposition are raised...
...

No.
You are wrong.
I make no attempts,
To criticize your standards...
...

The shadows chase and frighten.
No one escapes at all.
Some run until the sunset comes...
To find them peeking as they crawl.
...

You have made the natural act of expressing it,
An impossibility.
And to address the effectiveness with sincerity,
Has left it pointless to confess.
...

Although there seems to be,
A slowing done of your focused flow...
Keep the intent of your purpose.
Don't let that motivation go.
...

Thank You for opening my eyes,
Early in life.
And developing an appreciation,
For those lessons learned...
...

What has defeated
A greatness beginning
To crumble beneath our feet?
It has been an obsession,
...

You need to mind 'your' business!
And 'you' need to mind your business...
Understanding their business is none of yours.
AND...
