More Time Together Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

More time,
Together we could find...
To enjoy each other again.
Instead of talking 'bout neighbors,
Outside just walking.
Minding their own business as we gawk.
And...
More time,
To give it to define...
What's important to us to begin.
With a leaving those who hip-hop alone.
Let them finger pop and have their rap.
Hopefully those days will come to fade.
And, hopefully they'll grow up from that phase,
To age.

More time,
Together we could find...
To pick a proper topic and discuss it.
Without talking 'bout those people,
Who have lost their trust.
But love that fussing to cuss over 'nuthin'.

'He did it.'
~Then she did it.~
'They all did it and they hid it,
To believe we'd all forget it.
~But you were the fool,
By doing it too.~

'He did it.'
~Then she did it.~
'They all did it and they hid it,
To believe we'd all forget it.
~But you were the fool,
By doing it too.~

More time,
Together we could find...
To pick a proper topic and discusss it.
Like,
What's going on in the world today.
Now that's a proper topic to discuss it.
And,
Why so many people seem so crazed with hate.
Now that's a proper topic to discuss it.
More people talk about what isn't in their vision.
Like racism didn't start from them making decisions.

More time,
Together we could find...
To pick a proper topic and discuss it.
Without talking 'bout those people,
Who have lost their trust and their minds.
With a doing it to sign a bottom line.

'He did it.'
~Then she did it.~
'They all did it and they hid it,
To believe we'd all forget it.
~But you were the fool,
By doing it too.~

'He did it.'
~Then she did it.~
'They all did it and they hid it,
To believe we'd all forget it.
~But you were the fool,
By doing it too.~
