Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

A darkness that's been turned on,
Can be switch off and to do it quick.
This darkness that's been turned on,
Can be turned off with a doing it.
...

Is it...
Those pessimistic visits,
Permitted to persist,
Unresisted...
...

Should we...
Become un-numbed,
From our active and kept delusions?
To find a need for more reason,
...

You taught this...
Use of division to win all decisions.
You.
You taught this...
...

If it was not,
From a love you gave to me...
I would still be drifting.
Seeking what it was I sought.
...

As difficult as it is,
For some decisions to be made...
The doing of it is much easier,
Than the creating to make up new excuses.
...

It was either me or my patience,
I was going to let go to show...
I could be driven and seen,
Made totally crazed...
...

Religious beliefs to keep.
And followed faithfully.
Are they any different,
Than one who pledges to a fraternity?
...

A taking tasks to tackle,
With a rushing them through...
Can make more mistakes one makes.
To have one discover,
...

We're in a,
Fear daze.
We're in a,
Fear daze.
...
