Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

All of them the self-righteous types,
With ambtions to have status.
And socialize with whom they like.
These are the people who expect their lives,
...

I thought it foolish that I should move,
To find success or expect an acceptance.
Especially when I had the confidence,
In my choice to do what I did at my best,
...

Everyone living on Earth can see,
The Sun shining brightly...
With a radiance believed.
...

Those who go to college,
Should decide with a clear knowledge...
What it is,
They hope from it to get.
...

They still insist,
Upon critiquing others lives.
With a passing of their judgements.
...

Liars always seem to have their supporters.
Praising them for past deeds and activities.
Although they proclaim themselves,
To have morals and integrity.
...

Let's not get confused about this!
When I said I do not care...
I don't!
But let me clarify that.
...

So difficult it is to understand an anguish,
When ambushed within one's zone of safety.
And that which threatens,
Comfortably sits near and goes ignored.
...

Live to know.
With a desire to experience and grow,
As observant to all that there is that exists.
The mystery is in the nonacceptance.
...

Okay!
So I am not as great as I 'think' I am.
In fact you have stated you find me obnoxious.
But at least we do come together to agree,
...
