Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

What are you ready to express,
With such a willingness to project?
Whatever it is...
Consider this,
...

Baited by ratings,
And driven to satiate...
The entertainment of news.
And what and who produces the best,
...

People can choose to stay stuck in them,
If they want to.
But life lived moves on!
For those who prove they can,
...

Your creation has suffered,
From a disrespecting neglect.
And an absence of trust!
That's why it crumbles.
...

What was,
Maybe the 'is' we celebrate.

But the 'now' we live,
...

Can you accept and believe it...
The air allows a breathing to be achieved?

I am glad you do agree.
...

I want to know,
You.
Not that 'you'...
Prepared and rehearsed.
...

Do they wish to impress?
Or do they live just to do it,
As part of a 'self' consciousness.
Conscious their gifts exist.
...

Could a wisdom be hidden.
And purposely deprive someone?
Could opportunities be granted...
For those who are selected?
...

Eyes and high cheekbones!
That's how I can tell they are all related!
This crotch theory you've got,
Makes absolutely no sense.
...
