Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

You,
And your 'ALL ABOUT ME' attitude bores.
Your self obsession with self and 'exterior' virtues...
Have stretched beyond limits.
...

She saw a mansion and became a whore.
And couldn't wait to service the 'master'...
In the basement behind closed doors.
...

Here's a word of advice,
For anyone wishing...
To keep their relationship,
Fresh and private.
...

When one is young,
Growing seems so slow...
The days go on forever.
And the nights are there to never,
...

Some say they will and then don't.
Some begin to do it then wont.
Some wish to give...
And,
...

New England.
Colonialism.
The influence of the Dutch.
And...
...

Frigid!
As if it was up to me,
To patiently peel away...
Each layer of discomfort,
...

Some of us meet,
With an instant feeling felt...
There is some kind of unspoken history.
An intention sent,
...

Better bitter than bitten.
Or hung out to dry and smittened.

One can get over quickly a bitterness,
...

To be considerate of others.
That's IN.
To be disrespectful on a daily basis?
That AINT cool.
