Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Too many people keep their evil disguised.
And they do.
Too many people.
Too many today being evil.
...

They know what is going to happen.
And that is why it fascinates.
They know that danger lurks around.
And they are aware,
...

I care about these people.
That's why I can say I like it.

I care about them...
...

IF is more 'is' today than ever.
There is no quiz about it now.
And doubts once allowed are gone.
Believe it.
...

Just do your deeds and be done with it.
Why struggle against ignorance...
When the force of it,
Can create powerful setbacks.
...

It embraces and comforts!

'What does? '
...

Like that...
You gave it to me!
And now you want it,
Back?
...

And you...
Have spent so many days,
From Sun.
All your nights have turned into one.
...

I wish my heart to you was known.
With emotions deep.
I do keep within reach.
...

Sweet meat cleaver...
May your sharpened blade,
Be swung to come down swiftly...
To silent false lips attached to crooked necks.
...
