Analysis of I Object

Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)



'You object?
To what?'

I dont know that yet.
I'm awaiting in anticipation to expect,
Whatever you object to,
I can add to a variety reasons to select...
At least to one,
That will give my objection,
More clout and purpose...
Than it already has.
Getting my objection deserved attention.

'Then what,
Lie and deceive creating enemies?'

I hadn't thought about that.
To use as an accusation to allege I deceive.
And lie to create enemies.
Giving value and worth to notice my abilities.
How for you is that a benefits?

'I have my eye on politics as a profession.
Since deceiving has become,
The latest and upcoming  new industry.
