Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

You have a bird's eye view...
With a crowing done you do.
To boast about nonstop.
From your position...
...

No reasons do I have left,
To express an accessibility.
Nor are my ears available,
For empathetic listening.
...

It seems clear to me,
I am in your mind...
Much like a novelty,
When your curiosity is there...
...

I should have more of an understanding,
As to where you are coming from?
Your quick slide into the gutter,
Has been done by your own doing.
...

Okay!
It's a deal.
I promise not to be too severe,
When I evaluate in the giving of my assessments.
...

There has been achieved,
The worst oil disaster in recorded history.
And with this accomplishment,
All eyes can see...
...

Those who had mindlessly in their whims binged...
Now find themselves cringing,
At the thought of losing their credit status.
And the loss of habitual mall spending sprees.
...

Instead of separating society,
In divisions of sexual orientation and preferences...
Isolate those of no abnormalties at all!
And allow those with no dysfunctions,
...

I admire those brave,
And unafraid of their own shadows.

I admire those,
...

Will you come to love me,
Before the winds of transformation
Seal my lips from whispering your name
In sleep where dreams bring you near!
...
