Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Am I going to change my beliefs,
Because they don't provide for you...
A haven of quick relief?
What do you think?
...

Whatever lies have been told...
Realities have been forever changed.
And returning back to normal,
Is going to be extremely difficult...
...

Wouldn't it be great,
If all of our fantasies came true?
We would never have to worry about
Cleaning up after ourselves.
...

Sure,
Read me anytime you like!
You've been read several times.
That's why I am browsing through
...

Peddling influence
Among thieves
And trying to find explanations
For failed connections!
...

There is a campaign that permits,
Denying truth an existence.
And if allowed to continue...
Threatens a valued humanness.
...

If subjective objectivity
Depended on substance...
And its effective projected quality,
Few who nourish the encouragement of thought,
...

I don't concern myself
With your perceptions
Of my point of view!
There is not a pair of shoes
...

I sit,
Think and wonder...
What is 'this' that we are in?
Why are so many commited,
...

Excited I glowed...
When with my uncles and aunts.
Feeling such a radiance,
In a sheltered ambiance.
...
