Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Remember before,
We said, "I Do".
There was so much together,
We did to like.
...

Backlash retracked.
Of made Black,
Advancements to trash.
With a garbage,
...

Where do 'I' get,
My inspiration.
Motivation and determination?
And incentive to find it.
...

All those false,
And baseless claims.
Coming out of mouths everywhere.
Blaming their deceptions,
...

To and for the many,
Who have given time, concern...
And their interests to others.
With nothing to expect in return.
...

Golf is a game played,
That requires...
Focus, concentration.
And some degree of intelligence.
...

Integrity:
MISSING!
Neither remnants,
Nor sign of it...
...

From podiums near and far,
'Convincement' ceremonies...
Will be delivered to expect,
People listening to hear them...
...

Often I would sit.
Finding the time to ask myself,
Do I write for the enjoyment of it.
Or if this interest is more a gift.
...

Open wide your mind.
Remove lies from your eyes.
And...
See the truth as is.
...
