Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

With opportunities,
For some long gone!
...

Why...
Are you exposing your 'butt',
In public?
...

The time we are given to do what it is,
Seems...
Isn't enough.
It does not seem enough.
...

Breathing freely,
And adopting this as my number one...
Priority,
...

I remember the first time,
I confronted someone...
Reacting to a rumor.
And from a third person heard.
...

You wanna go to bed early,
And get up late.
You wanna make demands,
And not appreciate.
...

Don't think that floating boat,
You sit in needs no one to paddle.
You need to grab those paddles,
And begin to steer that boat.
...

No more fighting battles.
No more fighting battles.
No more fighting battles from a saddle I no longer sit!
No more fighting battles.
...

There is no other way.
Once that way has been,
Removed from suspense.
And in one's mind
...

Nobody came to party knew somebody who sat,
In a corner to sigh.
This was a heat to hotter party.
...
