Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

The tricks of politics,
Is to pretend religion has nothing to do with it.
Pretend there is a deep caring!
And a race without rascism 'is' involved.
...

If more and more people claim,
They have found God...
While they were locked up in prison?
Then why are they not finding 'Him'
...

What do I have to prove?
To you?
Nothing.
To myself?
...

I do the best I can...
To be a better man than I am!
I can understand,
Why you don't acknowledge me.
...

Strengthen my faith,
Father.
Wherever You are.
Wherever I am.
...

Breaking through the thickness,
That kept me attached to a weakness...
In my mind overtime I kept.
I have wept my last tears.
...

Your opinions and my activities,
Are on separate paths.
That is why I'm not seen,
In your presence too often.
...

Keep your wishes 'superlicious'
And keep your worth
Above the dirt.
Do not haste
...

With a plethora of fragrant douches,
She kept my aging heart inspired.
No longer was I quick to lift...
A stiff prick she was once excited with.
...
