Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Pick up your speed.
Don't be afraid to lead.
Crank.
It.
...

Change for many is unbearable.
It is feared.
A life known lived,
In accepted stagnation...
...

Justified and obstinate,
May make sense and provides...
Much more meaning to those,
Who have decided to divide a purpose cemented.
...

Since neither of us are committed,
To continue our relationship.
I want the ring I gave you back.
Since the obligation to fulfill that contract,
...

You tell others and say,
You are not impressed...
By those daily efforts of mine made.
...

I 'had' been in those relationships,
With those who thought of me as competition.
And that became unfortunate for them.
Since I was in it for companionship.
...

There are those dissatisfied,
With current government policies.
And wish to take it upon themselves,
To return to wholesome qualities.
...

I care.
But with no one will I share,
A welcoming of their despair.
...

When will I ever write 'something' you like?
Probably never.
Since you seek to have your appetite pleased...
And I will never cater to those who player hate.
...

Is he a hypocrite?
Another self righteous sleaze,
To be known to victimize boys...
With compelling sermons,
...
