Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Break free...
Of redundancy redone,
With done deeds!
Loosen up and retire,
...

It is as if we MUST live in fear today.
To protect a peace that is betrayed,
By unknown faces and places unfamiliar!
I refuse to live that way!
...

The sickness that continues to brew,
In the minds of people...
Should be of no surprise at all!
It is a succession of events.
...

I'm gonna win you back.
And it wont take long.
Panting and sacked...
Like you like it,
...

Keeping it realistic.
Untwisted from statistics!
I've got my charm and focus going.
Watching those whose minds flow,
...

The comfort of familiarity,
Should not give some license
To disrespect openly!
Or disregard others living lives,
...

My mind has been dipped in superstitions.
From the day that I was born to breathe.
Black cats and cracks on dirty sidewalks...
And splitting poles when walking with people!
...

Well look at you!
I haven't seen you
Since the last time we spoke.
I'm sure you remember the circumstances...
...

Wanting to be pleasing,
Decreasing all the pain they own!
Getting rid of plastic issues.
Tied to hollow dreams...
...

'This is despicable!
And deplorable behavior.
Who and what is behind this?
It is utterly irresponsible.
...
