Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Why scheme a reason to 'freak'?
With obvious eye chats going on...
Sending signals to meet.
Uttered conversations,
...

They don't speak to them
Because of what was said
To a family member,
Associated to a relative of a friend.
...

Show me someone living high on the 'hog'...
And I'll show you someone finding it very difficult,
Trying to hide their sufferings of mental malnutrition.
And other wasteful diets they are attempting to maintain!
...

An awakening occurs,
That establishes...
For the one witnessing it.
A freedom to express a consciousness.
...

You may not like my 'tone' of voice.
And how I use it,
To express 'my' feelings.
And your wish to move forward,
...

I agree with you.
Time and people do change.
And after spending years,
With a patient crying of tears...
...

Scooby doo boop.
Scooby doo boop bee doop.

Scooby doo boop.
...

No!
I have been misquoted.
And frankly...
I am getting sick and tired of it.
...

From where I sit...
And I have had those opportunities,
To sit and observe from various places.
In different environments.
...

Why is it you have to voice your opinion,
And dislikes,
About what someone else does...
And how they live their lives?
...
