Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Out of sync!
And this seems to have happened,
Within a blink!
...

A treasure that was given,
Was dismissed before declared.
The value of it was unknown...
So its purpose was not shared.
...

Who do you think you are dealing with?
Some fly by night inexperienced nitwit?
Someone who has not discovered,
Purpose and the meaning of life?
...

...and as if I didn't know,
What was involved with it.
Or what it took.
Or how it leaves...
...

You celebrated my death.
And delighted in my murder.
You thought your lips would seal and crush...
My life into a hopelessness.
...

A successful stroke of luck?
Bestowed upon someone...
Who is both surprised and amazed,
By a sudden fuss stirred up?
...

Let's set this record straight!
Your foundations...
Structured with tainted funds!
And on the backs of those you allowed to suffer...
...

It doesn't matter...
How you regard me.
Where you regard me
If you regard me.
...

Who cares which one is better suited...
Has more stage presence,
And is preferred to apply a much needed touniqet?
...
