Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

How treacherous are those,
Seeking both power AND control...
Over you and others?
...

Two people.
Meeting for the first time.
And sharing similar wants and wishes.
With a keeping them fresh.
...

You STILL wouldn't 'get it'.
Even IF the directions,
Were drawn using neon crayons
Pointing to the exit...
...

It's falling apart...
Quicker than their suspicions,
Can point fingers.
...

Be safe.
Be cool.
Be for real...
By doing what you feel,
...

'If' said to hear it,
To suggest or recommend.
Has a powerful effect kept,
On one's imagination.
...

I am not perfect.
I have flaws.
And they are there in public view.
...

In the silence there are answers.
When the mind is hushed.
And free of busy thoughts to think.
...

Okay!
I will admit what I observe daily,
Does not exist with a worthiness to mention.
It will be difficult.
...

It can become such a foolish waste...
To chase someone who gets things done.
With a hope for a clue,
That will reveal a preview.
...
