Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

And you...
Have spent so many days,
From Sun.
All your nights have turned into one.
...

I wish my heart to you was known.
With emotions deep.
I do keep within reach.
...

You know what you are.
Did my validation,
Confirm your findings?
Did you take a survey...
...

What's a goon?
Could that be someone
Who believes they have an intelligence
Gained from books and not from a sense,
...

You selected me as your newly discovered bait?
I could not wait for a fool like you.
You appeared the moment your ignorance,
Put you in that gear.
...

I am waiting for you to disappear,
To enable me to miss you.
However...
I can not do that successfully,
...

They can make the same old claims,
All they want...
But the facts,
Remain unchanged.
...

Too many people keep their evil disguised.
And they do.
Too many people.
Too many today being evil.
...

Just how difficult is it,
To give without getting.
To love just to love.
To show others a kindness,
...

People believe the value of truth,
Depends on interpretation.
They are absent of clues...
That truth is not a product of a whim.
...
