Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Oh...?
I am more than willing,
To give you something other than fluff.
But you are the one,
...

If the only caring you did for me,
Was to pretend it done and successfully...
Guess which one of us benefitted,
By meeting someone genuine...
...

Defying the odds.
Winning to get attention,
After being kicked to the curb...
Is an awesome feeling one deserves.
...

I am not one to assess another's flaws,
With wishes they perceive my view of life.
I can not say who should rid themselves of them,
To correct themselves to make things for them right.
...

I got so wrapped up and locked into perfection.
Thinking I should be...
Someone other than me.
...

Hot!
Like a heat hot.
These past few days,
In the first week of July 2010...
...

It is best to leave those cranky alone.
It pays to leave those cranky people alone.

Leave those cranky people,
...

We were all given the same rules.
And the consequences for disobeying them,
Were tested.
By more than just a few.
...

Are you that person,
To take what you hear...
To be fact and not fiction?
...
