Those Seeking Pity For The Petty Should Quit Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Those Seeking Pity For The Petty Should Quit



Throw away all yesterdays and rush,
To catch up.
No time is forgiving of minds,
Too slow...
To let go of woes.

What appears today speeds away too quick.
With an obviousness.
To waste one's mind in a sitting to analyze it,
Profits no one who becomes idealistic.
Or delivers a benefit for those dreaming to wish,
Those yesterdays returned...
So one can prove they 'had' but did not use,
A common sense refused but chose it to be abused.

Throw away all yesterdays and rush,
To catch up.
No time is forgiving of minds,
Too slow...
To let go of woes.

Those seeking pity for the petty should quit.
Not to postpone to bemoan a bit.
To think of it as just dismissed.
What WAS speeds away too quick.
And unforgiving of the ones who sit...
In the way.
Of what comes today and leaves quick.

Those seeking pity for the petty should quit.
Not to postpone to bemoan a bit.
What WAS speeds away too quick.
And unforgiving of the ones who sit.

Those seeking pity for the petty should quit,
And move on.
Those seeking pity for the petty should quit,
And move on.
Those seeking pity for the petty should quit...
To know what's gone has moved on to split.
