Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

If anyone wants to be taken seriously,
Investing first in gaining crediblity...
Is strongly suggested and advisable.
Since adopting a fast track way,
...

It is quite wonderful,
You would want the beliefs you keep...
To be correct.
I think it to be commendable.
...

There is too much hypocrisy expressed,
In religion.
Too much division in it too...
For it to go unobserved.
...

If you happen to live in a place,
That is shallowed...
And nourishes the antics of busy bodies.
Feed their activities.
...

Anyone can elect to be whomever they wish.
They can do this in campaigns,
Or in a gathering of forums conducted...
To convince others of like minds,
...

After lessons have been taught...
Step aside and take pride.
There is nothing else anyone can teach,
That increases a comprehension...
...

The greatest discovery one can find,
Is the doing of their own thing.
With a doing that comes to occupy the mind.
And to do it done not to express what it is,
...

Most have lived to pick their choices,
Throughout their lives.
Whether enjoyed to like or hated,
These decisions were made and consciously.
...

What are you doing?

'Pushing buttons.
It should be obvious.'
...

You may dislike me for your own reasons,
Unknown to me as you continue to do it.
But don't feel alone.
Eventually I will find some dislikes of my own,
...
