Comments received on poems by Kurt Philip Behm



Period — End
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Kurt, this is tight and deliberate…“excellent lies / terrible truths” sets the tension, but “— joined at the root” is what makes it land. It brings everything together into something unavoidable. Strong piece, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

And from that circular seed all things grow. An end point in a small black dot it is the omega. Good write Kurt and a fave

Wednesday Musing
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Kurt, “the crossroads of tomorrow — to enter or stay” is the line that stays with me. That tension sits at the center of so much here. And the way you vary structure across the set…some tighter, some more open…gives each idea its own space while still feeling connected. Beautifully done. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

Sleep Well My Love (+1)
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Kurt, that first piece hits hard…there’s a quiet devastation in the way everyone comes together around what was never resolved. It feels honest in a way that doesn’t try to clean anything up…just lets it stand. And that closing line stays with you. Really powerful work here. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

What in unpardonable in life is forgivable in death. Technological monitoring excused for the sake of entertainment and convenience. Good write Kurt i

Tristan Robert Lange said:

Kurt, this is beautifully put…you captured the smoky, late-night feel of the poem perfectly. That sense of memory and loss hanging in the air after the last line is exactly what gives it its weight. Really enjoyed your take here, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

The Instant Upon Us
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Kurt, the phrase “the present eternal” caught my attention right away. That tension between eternity and the fleeting moment gives the whole poem its philosophical pulse. It invites the reader to pause and consider how time actually moves through us. Thoughtful piece. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

Clarity (+1)
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Kurt, these feel like small philosophical snapshots…clarity arriving through distance, and the weight of life lifting into a kind of freedom. The second piece adds an almost reflective echo with time, knowledge, and the tension between them. Short lines, but they leave room for the thought to breathe. Nicely done. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

Searching For Leonardo
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Kurt, this carries a quiet weight that lingers. The palette fading into gray feels like that moment when inspiration slips away…yet the rainbow framing tomorrow’s easel reminds us the colors return. It’s reflective, gentle, and full of quiet hope. Loved this one, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

Searching For Leonardo
sorenbarrett said:

A rainbow on tomorrow\'s easel a promise made that points the way. Past and future only touch in the present. A nicely written gem my friend

Dog Days
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Kurt, this has a really effective slow burn to it…each day quietly building the sense of heat and exhaustion until the week itself starts to feel like a creature. The simplicity works very well here, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

A great catalogue of the days of the week Kurt but I thought that Sunday was for repenting. Oh I forgot for us nonchurch going folks it is Monday. A good read my friend

Life lessons From The Track
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Kurt, this has real racing energy in it… short lines that hit like bursts of acceleration. The whole piece reads like track wisdom learned the hard way. Loved it, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

Life lessons From The Track
sorenbarrett said:

Each one a gem. So true in any race action speaks louder than words, it is in the turns that one shows ones strength, measure and time your energy, Those that show off have little to show and when the going gets tough the tough get going. A wonderful write my friend

The Tragedy Of Fall
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Kurt, this carries a beautiful melancholy… the way September begins in warmth and memory before October quietly unravels it. I can relate to this. That closing image of autumn dismantling summer lands with real weight. Well done, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

One way of deciphering it is : we can challenge what is before us, until the point where the final proof makes us give in. This could be one interpretation.

O*N*T*O*L*O*G*I*A
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Kurt, there’s something wonderfully paradoxical here…that movement from “what it isn’t” to the moment it simply becomes. The final turn feels almost philosophical, like the instant where possibility crosses the threshold into reality. A small poem with a surprisingly large echo, as it were. Well done, here. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

Blues Poem #24
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Kurt, this one feels like a song that never really left the rails…that wandering blues spirit moving from stop to stop. The scratchin you talk about feels deeper than the surface…more like a restlessness that follows a man wherever he goes. That mood sits heavy in the best way. Plus, you know what I think of that title…just short of a Mr. 😏 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛
