Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

May I ask a question?
'Sure.'
...

You and me, baybee
We know what this is about!
We know what the ends and outs are
Of this love affair,
...

Carrying someone else's baggage,
Is not my assignment.
And 'if' you have found it has become yours
Request another mission.
...

One who has no desire to initiate a kindling,
Of a fire
To bring or stimulate pleasure to another.
But has an expectation on an ongoing basis,
...

I once had a fool tell me,
There was nothing intentional...
By using my name fraudulently.
And representing me...
...

Any day
That the Sun,
For me
Rises!
...

Anyone wishing to enforce their beliefs,
With a flaunting done insisting their point of view
Is correct with a pouting stubbornness,
No evidence presented will convince.
...

There are those having the most difficult time,
They have ever had to experience in their lives.
And adjusting for them,
Has to be done without instructions.
...

There is nothing more satisfying,
Than to be depicted as a fool...
By those who have accepted,
Their unconditional training...
...

One who has lived a life protected,
With an encouragement...
To fear the making of mistakes.
Is destined to live an insecure existence.
...
