Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

It's true...
They do have the experience.
And we are all looking for a few,
Who can not spell the word at all.
...

Of course I've been driven to madness.
Haven't you?
It's chic.
It's so 'with it' today,
...

Lost within the loop.
Giving up mentalities,
To TV programs and commercial teases.
Disconnected completely from world affairs.
...

Aggressing their way into total isolation.
As demands for their way of life,
Burdens humanity.
And focuses all to the core of this strife.
...

Such a rewarding life.
Full with twists and turns.
Happiness and strife.
To test every emotion given.
...

This may not be obvious.
But those who suffer from the perpetuation,
Of hate...
Are themselves victimized,
...

When the marketing of weapons has been done.
Complete with nuclear technology!
Expect them to be tested and used.
...

Your greed emptied your pockets.
Remember when you stood in my way...
To declare me unqualified?
That didn't bother me at all.
...

If my heart is the heart,
You are still loving...
Why don't you let me know?
Why is it that we both hurt so?
...

Another ghetto rambling viewed pursued,
In self indulgent observation.
It is there and I feast my eyes.
I share with those of other visions.
...
