Lawrence S. Pertillar - From Behind a Cart They Push

2014-11-10 1

I've become less impressed on a daily basis,
With those who wish to express their views...
From behind a cart they push.

To express to those who toil and pull from the front,
The standards they value and their expectations.
While providing no encouragement.
But insisting upon being treated with respect.
And dignity!

As those who pull dodge flagrant insults thrown...
Scouting out for safe passage!
And entertaining the whims of those,
Who have chosen to make rear view comments.

Lawrence S. Pertillar
