Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

I do not envy a second of your patience.
I could not sit to wait,
As if my own needs...
Can only be satisfied,
...

I've never shared a luck with love.
I've had great responses from flings,
And one night stands...
When searching to be libido-ized.
...

You are quite different,
Than what I had expected.

'Who and what did you expect? '
...

Isn't it ironic,
That those comments made yesterday...
About the economy nose diving because of greed,
Were comments mentioned then to have a negativity.
...

I use to feel so bad about it.
I use to get so mad and doubt it.
When conversations turned to age.
And who had looks they thought would stay.
...

'I admit to those times of being vane,
AND guilty.
But...
Not in recent memory.'
...

I've seen birds with wings,
Use them.
I've known people with talents,
And God given gifts...
...

Tell me where you go,
When you've got to leave me.
To say you're seeking some harmony!
...

You borrowed from me ten dollars.
With a promise to pay me...
Last week.
Today you are angry,
...

How to...
Demonstrate love!
And,
How to...
...
