Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

That normalcy wanted.
With it wished to get back.
Has not left to leave to go anywhere.
...

Too much bright light,
On the truth has been shone.
Glaring.
Blinding the eyes of naysayers.
...

Being in a position,
Made to listen.
Then to develop a desire,
To obtain and acquire discipline.
...

Decided are the sides,
With names chosen to pick.
In the hopes to be victorious,
As a game called politics...
...

No one prepares another,
To warn what the loss and cost is...
Paid.
For a lie to sell it,
...

What makes one mind,
So hypnotizing to attract...
People to attack one another.
With this done to follow,
...

What age does one reach,
When mistakes claimed to make...
Are forgiven.
To ultimately forget.
...

Nothing God creates,
To closely examine.
Done to do to evaluate.
Has not been duplicated.
...

Truth to refuse,
The acceptance of it.
Does not make it more to delude.
With this to excuse,
...

Crush that rush to distrust.
With a convincing yourself,
Everything done you have tried.
Messing up your vibe like that.
...
