Lawrence S. Pertillar Leadership Poems

Strength in leadership,
And commitment to rhetoric...
As the dollar value slips.
Leaving harder times to come and exist!
...

You may be right.
Perhaps it is his skin color,
That is disliked most about him.
However...
...

Their entire reality,
Is based upon what they believe...
From behind the steering wheels,
Of their cars.
...

What upsets about his leadership?
He is extremely competent.
And many can not get over it.
...

A true leadership offends.
Especially those who have grown,
To believe...
Their lack of comprehending it,
...

Bad?
Oh...
Much worse than that.
...

Those picked to sit in leadership positions,
Would not be there if they cared about truth.
Leaders are often selected,
Based first upon their charisma.
...

There are many people needing,
To be told who they are.
What to do next and where to go.
How they should live,
...

The quality of leadership,
To depend upon to know it provided.
Begins with the capability to listen.
Hear and comprehend.
...

Preparing to win competitions,
Is not as difficult...
As preparing to provide,
Reliable competent leadership.
