Pits To Spit Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Pits To Spit



Life has its peaks.
Cracks and crevices,
That create setbacks.
Setbacks that seem to load in packs
With unwanted disappointments,
From nowhere to appear.
With a doing to customize...
As if to do it is a personal attack,
Upon one's patience to leave none saved.

Make a pledge to take or fake it.
Life can have its pits to spit.
And difficult to swallow.
Since most fruit to chew isn't seedless.
Make it to take it to fake the pledge.
Or just quit whatever it is,
Before jumping off the edge.
To decide to minimize what is disliked.
With an acceptance of the pits.
To expect some bitterness allowed to exist.
For a more fulfilling and enjoyable life.
