Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

If you have come to believe,
Someone can actually be blamed...
For your pitiful life lived?
Look in the mirror!
...

Deaf to voices,
Other than their own ingrown...
Patronizes a tension.
And seeks imbalanced attention.
...

I rule.
Therefore,
What I choose to do...
Is imposed.
...

From squalor and trash,
A rising is witnessed.
Forgiveness is wished,
But a pain condoned...
...

I had to sever my emotions,
From those I had considered 'friends'.
You know...
The ones that want to dump their stress,
...

It is the most easiest tactic to use.
And commonly effective.
When something has been said,
Known to be untrue...
...

There is a solution,
For those who become irritated...
By others who seem not to be able,
To mind their own business.
...

Come on and get a big piece of love,
My love...
You had thought had gone.
...

I don't ever want to find the time,
To try to define you!
Just gimme whatcha got!
...

The anticipation for the end of times,
Has overwhelmed beauticians and barbers...
From coast to coast and globally.
And 'After 6' evening wear is running out of stock,
...
