Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

If there is anyone seeking,
Anything in my life to taint?
I'll be the first to say...
A saint I ain't!
...

You say you want to see my face,
Before we meet each other for a date.
It will not be 'blind'...
Both of our eyes will be opened wide!
...

Minds like that...
Have been poisoned for so long.
And for all the wrong reasons,
They would rather keep their sights...
...

Put me on your readers list,
If you wish.
And you will find your nonsense,
Not unique at all!
...

I live to explore!
Not to sit in the midst of discoveries...
To be compared by others,
As the way my life should be!
...

Don't try to cuddle up to me...
Enemy I've known.
Don't believe my tolerance for you...
Is a weakness I condone.
...

They complain about the media.
Those who use it and abuse it!
They say it is unfair...
And declare its worthlessness.
...

When is it ever ready...
For us to make up our minds,
It is time to get what we put off
To get something done?
...

If you see me bleed,
Without coming to my comfort to aid.
Will you bare the wound,
Upon the nakedness of your consciousness...
...

Even though everyone has seen this,
As a boulder falling upon their heads.
It has been requested that we describe it...
As a brief interruption of communicated ideas!
...
