Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

I care.
But with no one will I share,
A welcoming of their despair.
...

A fruitless life one lives and perceives,
May be for many...
An actuality.
...

Some people believe they are above and not equal.
With abilities to steal and thieve.
But all of us on Earth have come...
From Earth to leech.
...

Of course I care that you are there.
I am not without intuition.
Because I choose not to listen,
Does not leave me obligation free...
...

Living to contribute,
Often becomes a discouragement...
To those who are needlessly offended,
By the publicity given to their activities.
...

There is a concerted effort directed,
To decrease the influence of integrity.
With an undoing to proceed,
In a thoughtless blindedness...
...

Do you remember it?
When I was the first to admit,
I was afraid again to commit...
To a monogamous relationship.
...

What 'is' tasteless?

Hmmm...
Let's see.
...

I will always be your friend!
But...
I will not always be accepting,
Of those things you do!
...

If you are not living your life to the fullest,
In the HERE and NOW...
You will not be convinced about 'tomorrow'.
Because those expectations have yet to be accepted.
...
