Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

There will never be a wind.
To blow with such force.
That could remove the truth,
Away from being what it is.
...

It is not often to happen.
That one's love to give.
Returned by another,
Purposely to crush and bust it.
...

Quit it.
That routine proving no benefit.
Stop to quit it.
A wish to get.
...

The willingness
To mind one's own business.
Can be such a traumatic undertaking.
And life changing for someone nosey.
...

It may be poetic.
How one can take a slice of life.
To either be cynical.
Or sarcastic to have a particular bite.
...

Everyday.
Whether to notice or not.
Subtle are the changes made.
To settle and accept.
...

A concept to believe it.
Has more acceptance than not.
Like the presence of rejection.
That is perceived without reality.
...

If everyone was accused.
Of something wrong,
They did to do.
And they admitted it too.
...

Life.
Enriching when more witnessed.
When this experience blessed to get,
Is lived.
...

People who choose evil.
To display their public disdain,
For others.
Only inflict,
...
