Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Just to 'if' it up and wish it be known,
What it is desired that would satisfy one's taste!
Would be great.
With delusions there included.
...

Standing in the heat to sit,
Like...
A Sycamore.
...

You're upset with regrets,
And yet...
You keep them in your weeping.
I think for you the best thing to get,
...

Early in my life,
I learned to navigate.
And appreciate what I initiated.
...

When is the act of corruption admitted to be corrupt?
When those who denied its existence,
Now are convinced of it.
And those they offended by calling them names,
...

Out of all of the recipes listed,
I may have heard of a couple of them.
The rest?
I've never heard any of them mentioned before,
...

It seems more than not,
That something blown out of the box...
Starts over nothing.
To leave one's peace disrupted.
...

There is a difference between truth and deception.
Deception can be ignored to eventually go away.
But not too far.
Deceivers like to stick around to recruit.
...

I stand to walk,
From a crawl.
That's why I remain,
Confident.
...

Your tactics used,
Are old and have been seen...
To be used too many times before.
The only difference is this...
...
