Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Where is the validation...
Of your beliefs.
Where is the validation,
Set in conrete
...

Experience to get can not be taught.
Nor can a comprehension begin,
Without a listening sought.
Some people today are known,
...

From pen to cyber pals,
Sending expressed thoughts...
To do within seconds.
Over the internet.
...

No I did not,
Amuse myself...
While picking you to use.
No I did not,
...

People Are beginning to see,
After awakening from a prolong...
And self inflicted mental hibernation,
To realize with their eyes open wide...
...

Millions spent on one event.
For the purpose to entertain,
Those whose lives...
And the quality of them to live,
...

Often it remains to stay unforgiving.
When faced for what it is.
Truth shocks.
...

I don't need no compass.
No compass do I use,
To know where I need to be.
Or where I'm going,
...

When people are more celebrated,
For their efforts to have achieved them...
After death has taken,
Their breath of life away...
...

Affection, love and devotion to get,
Is more precious than any object...
One obtains to impress.
And as debts begin to deepen,
...
