Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

It seems more today are minding their own business.
And caring less if noticed doing it better,
Than they never thought they could.
Some are overheard to say convincingly.
...

Fear of failure keeps me chased.
As if a shadow casted,
To remind nothing to begin...
Ends feeling satisfied of its finishing.
...

Why is it people decide,
To move from beautiful places?
It might be the cost of living.
Or...
...

Whatever it was to have been sprayed,
Into the atmosphere these tumultuous days.
Has emboldened the people to create,
An escalating of their mental issues.
...

Spoiled by delusion.
And fed upon images symbolizing,
Their own condoned superiority.
So many minds instructed from birth,
...

No one can prepare for...
Which lessons they will learn.
More important than others.
In life to keep.
...

Tomorrow.
And each one to acknowledge,
Followed.
Replacing images to idolize,
...

There are places in which,
So many accept those ambiguous moments.
Neither defined nor direct.
Yet many will follow with unconscious minds.
...

So much better it is,
For one to admit than deny.
A wallowing in the mud.
Then request dirt to be applied.
...

Finding it uniquely satisfying.
Many increasingly kneel to lick,
The shiny sceptre adorned...
By the recently elected royal speculator.
...
