Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

What is it defined,
That remains unchanged in meaning.
What emotion found to find it felt,
Stays the same to express that way.
...

Success may come,
To those wishing others failure.
But a failure to wish on others to come,
With it done...
...

Success may come,
To those wishing others failure.
But a failure to wish on others to come,
With it done...
...

Not too many who are blessed,
To have their logic tested...
Will remain being harrassed,
And contested...
...

Ignorance to pride has died.
Yet many believe,
They have been blessed with it.
As a gift to flaunt undaunted.
...

Little left there is,
That can be covered up.
Or dressed over by sweetened scents.
Nor can flavored speeches given,
...

Stepping aboard and accepting,
A new and different voyage.
Beyond perceptions of impossibilites.
When it is witnessed on a daily basis,
...

The most important lessons to learn,
For some become regarded...
As a pointless waste of their time.
And that depends on the appearance,
...

No used or borrowed love,
Have I ever sat to wish...
From anyone to get.
Nor do leftovers sit in my mind,
...

Somebody goes to welcome,
What nobody lives yet knows.

Why do so many wrestle with thoughts,
...
