Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Each one was given an ax.
To clear the debris on paths they chose.
For the purpose of pursing,
Their dreams and wishes to fulfill.
...

Underselling a delivery,
Whether purposely done...
Consciously or not,
That eventually impresses...
...

A teaching of lessons,
By one limited in life experiences...
Become less effective,
When those lessons are subjective...
...

Exhibited respect,
Can be observed and seen...
To be done from those,
Who do not demand it given.
...

An elevator stuck in between floors,
Will stay where it is.
Until it is fixed.
Or someone who rides inside of it,
...

I am not a rocket scientist.
But with the aid of observation,
I can tell you this...
Making things look easy to do,
...

Why send a message,
With an expectation to receive a response.
If your 'email' box is full and blocked.
And when you confront people,
...

I don't cater to excuses.
In fact,
When I hear them being made...
They instantly annoy.
...

When the point of no return has been reached,
The preaching of sermons or lectures heard...
Has no effect to influence upon a mind vacant.
...

People.
Everyone of us stay to keep in touch,
With our insecurities.
No one is exempt.
...
