Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

So many spend their lifetimes,
Trying to find ways...
To prove what is right and correct.
To be wrong.
...

Congratulations.
You have been awarded,
To participate...
In the living of your life.
...

People continue to pay,
Exorbitant fees...
To have their children accepted,
Into the most prestigious schools.
...

Can a forgiving of liars be done.
The ones who meant,
With intentions to do.
And deceived to have their lies believed.
...

No matter who gets what,
From another to give it.
Whether to appreciate a not.
A receiving of a beautifully wrapped,
...

Choose acceptance.
Denial kept,
Is a slow mind killer.
...

Listening to do,
Should not take,
A getting old.
Thick headed and stubborn.
...

Top notch nonsense,
Will not soon stop...
Being the choice picked.
Among the upper nose raisers.
...

Tomorrow knows the poet.
Unrestricted by limits.
And endless time,
To adventure it.
...

Needing To have heroes.
In images that symbolize,
The mystery of a mystique unique.
We.
