Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Maybe if it was admitted,
As to what had been seen and done...
It would have been prevented,
Before it was given an opportunity...
...

It would have been great,
If hiding places...
Were not so easily created,
To establish all over the place.
...

Without integrity,
Or dependable credibility...
How can anyone expect,
To be trusted?
...

In places where evil is kept practiced,
It takes one to find ways...
To ensure it is always distracted.
...

A bird with wings,
And equipped to fly...
Is seldom seen,
Trying to be convinced of it.
...

So many seek to ridicule others,
For the seeking to achieve!
But what is it that is accomplished?
A feeling better about oneself?
...

Is it worthy to keep and maintain notes,
On the proper execution of social etiquette?
Or expressing flawless elocution,
When asked to publicly speak...
...

Sober, grave, and staid...
To highlight one's prim and proper,
Self restraint.
Often impairs one's vigor and effectiveness,
...

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.
...
