Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

If more than one can state,
Their fortunes made to be created...
Have been available to appreciate,
Why is it for some...
...

I live each day seeking,
For something that isn't done...
By anyone not introducing,
Another round of what they've found...
...

Only those who had once been depicted,
Unusual, out of it and more than just different...
Have come today to witness,
Those who had lived such steady and normal lives...
...

I can not resist,
Your illuminate doings.
That fit me quick,
Those illuminated doings...
...

I wouldn't and don't advise anyone,
To underestimate me and/or my abilities.
Or take the love I am capable to easily express,
As a sign of not being committed...
...

So difficult it is,
For many people to grow up.
With a accepting of responsibility,
As part of the process.
...

There are far more enjoying same sex relationships,
And happy in them without expressing regrets.
Than there are those in heterosexual ones...
To argue over nonsense that upsets.
...

With words selected and meant,
For purposes to present...
Can be thought to be an easy task,
For those who believe it to be.
...

I too have my fears,
I've learned to keep unseen.
Since I have never had a backup crew.
Or know what it's like,
...

With a leaving those far behind,
Who can not relate...
To these times that blows their minds.
And they would rather wait,
...
