Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Gone!
I had been gone,
So long.
I didn't know it...
...

If you must know...

I'm the meadow.
I'm the stream through the hills.
...

You and I and others too,
Are truly the 'victims' of our own thought process.
IF we change and eliminate
That which we do not wish to have in our lives...
...

As the world seems to be plummenting,
Into a chaos of lies and hopelessness.
Let us be reminded,
That which is viewed...
...

I am not one to remain,
In the middle lane.
I am too driven to pass those,
Too slow and undecisive.
...

Serving a purpose,
Delivers, eventually...
Benefits one gets.
...

No there is no blueprint to follow,
Anyone gets to live a life done to do.
And no notes to be taken to study.
With a hope to pass each test to face.
...

The obvious contradicted.
Never has the attention given,
To it...
Failed to be disputed.
...

The more of the past,
One has been blessed to live...
To experience.
The more difficult it is,
...

Wholesome and fed,
Neighborly violence.
As biases are kept discussed,
In gated communities.
...
