Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Seeking a service or product to sell,
For the purpose to market successfully...
Only those with an expanding approach,
To include an unlimited demographic...
...

Choosing to chase,
An undisciplined pet into the woods...
Becomes a game that remains the same.
...

I remember the last time,
I promised to do something for myself...
And I was proud of the outcome.
I was proud of the result.
...

Discovering anything new,
Presents an excitement...
One wishes to keep possessed.
Then something happens!
...

I didn't mean to say,
What I said previously.
I meant to say something,
Entirely different.
...

Wouldn't it be wise for anyone,
Before doing something done...
That affects the life of another,
To at least base the act upon facts?
...

I do not judge what I observe,
I AM a product of my environment.
And those who cease to accept,
The origins of their foundations...
...

I make attempts to walk away.
Even turning my head...
In other directions.
With the taking of deep breaths.
...

The longer the battle,
The less credible the fighting...
That is fought.
Unconscious steps taken begin to awaken.
...
