Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

The reason why,
They have rejected your assistance.
And have ignored your suggestions...
Recommendations and proposals written,
...

If people were not intentionally programmed,
To be envious...
Manipulating them would not be so easily effective.
...

One's silence is saluted,
When removed from loops seduced.
One's silence is saluted...
When refusing automatic passes,
...

Is a return to appreciate someone,
Just too late?
When one discovers,
A position taken of a situation faked...
...

Once a picking apart begins,
The entire fabric becomes affected.
And so effective is the unravelling,
Those who believe themselves not participants...
...

If their parents had reasons,
Why they disliked themselves...
Like their parents before them did.
Maybe their children would be given opportunities,
...

When you,
Rise and shine...
With a giving up of all your sorrows,
You will...
...

It hurts to live a truth,
When a doing it many have done to refuse...
To see it for what it is.
Or prefer to make lieing as a choice to choose.
...

A giving to extremes,
Overplayed to plead one's faked case...
Fades to phase out.
...

Motivation!
And devotion combined,
Seem to affix themselves...
With unequivocal discipline hinged,
...
