Exceptional Perception
Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)
Exceptional perception.
Inspiring with an incentive motivation.
Kept by one believing perception to keep,
Releases the feeling of doubt.
Most achieve and receive,
The possibility of doubt.
Tossed about and heard,
Repeatedly coming out of mouths.
To hear.
Discouraging words.
Meant to prevent to erase one's perception,
With a doing to replace...
Ambition to decay,
One's fading away...
Of encouragement to have had it.
Since...
Doubt to witness appears more clearly.
And nearly everywhere one goes.
To witness and observe it being served.
Without effort to endeavor,
The brighter side of life.
Ignoring attempts to accentuate to positve!
'What are you saying?
I'm not making attempts,
To accentuate the positive.
You don't know me.
I know for a fact I am positively depressed.
Unless you want to interpret my reality,
As something else.
I might decide to prefer!?
I happen to enjoy complaining.
Although I must admit a not knowing if...
That unchanging smile on your face,
Is a reflection of your happiness.
Or your inability to be honest enough to say,
You have a problem digesting...
Your own nonsense with wishes to share!
You have no clue yourself, do you!
How about moving away from me?
As the best hint I can give to you.
Please.
I urge you to take it!'
You...
Are rude.
Disrespectful, thoughtless.
And don't know what it means,
To feel blessed and appreciate life!
'I knew it.
I knew there was something,
Intelligent about you.
You are very observant.
But not so fast to move your feet.
And I am in no mood to apply assistance!'
