Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

It is so much more,
Than...
Just a regiment.
And...
...

Do you stay with a craving...
That is a hunger for me?
And,
Is this...
...

People today upset,
Expect the effects of change...
To be for them painless.
And immaculate.
...

The more expense of persuasion spent,
And the actual acts of facts put into place...
To chase away doubt and those paying,
With debates displayed and tossed about...
...

Even after all of the performances are done.
And the expense spent on the hype,
Leaves no one in the audience excited.
Or feeling their appetites have been satisfied.
...

Faking interest.
With less than half-baked dedication,
Is still a 'wannabee' self indulging on pretense.
Hoping that an expression of devotion,
...

Opposition to a united position,
People are seeking and more than wish...
With intentions to mend and heal,
That which has been broken.
...

I can't be the only one witnessing this,
With uninhibited curiosity.

'What is it that you are looking at? '
...

Whether you like the position you are in or not,
You are better off in being my partner.
Than you are remaining in opposition to it.
And what the times we are living in represent,
...

And with a panoramic,
Unobstructed view.

'Incredible.
And...
...
