Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

A change to agree upon.
To declare it most needed.
Yet remains unidentified.
With objectified specifics.
...

Incredulous.
Is a faith to keep.
That a spreading swamp overflowing.
With corrupted creeps.
...

Love to maintain it.
Must first have its origin,
Started from one's heart.
Love to seek and felt not received.
...

A power toxic.
And fuming thick.
With a mesmerizing narcissistic addiction.
Too hypnotizing for minds to resist.
...

If what is not wanted.
But everyday displayed.
And available at the marketplace.
To purchase or test anytime one wishes.
...

A known support to give it.
With a shown disrespect from it to get.
May be reason to put in effect quickly.
A distance to have noticed.
...

A massive influx of ignorance.
Endorsed and enforced upon the people.
Has been done by the ones who feel entitled.
That their lack of facts.
...

A picture may paint a thousand words.
However,
If the ones viewing what is exhibited.
Are socially illiterate.
...

Those choosing to view life in limits.
Seem restricted to live starting conflicts.
This to be done to then seek challenges.
With the picking of the ones,
...

I am in no position.
To call anyone a corrupted thief.
Or a lieing paid under the table politician.
Nor would I have the audacity to say,
...
