Its Scar Now Yours To Love (Blues Poem #12)
burning-embers said:
The blues. I\'ve played many genre of music live but the blues lets me be me. Ad-libbing a solo is fun and creative, often showing off, but in the blues its open heart therapy, my heart sings of my scars. Do i sound like i miss it. You bet i do.

When The Words Won\'t Come (Blues Poem #13) (+1)
FredPeyer said:
Kurt, I did not think of Alzheimers, but now that you mentioned it, I re-read the poem again with this in mind, and you are absolutely right, it is even more than frightening. Was just yesterday talking with my brother in law who is also a very good friend, and told him that I would rather be physically damaged than lose my mind.

I agree with the other comments. The last line is the scary one. All the others are not so bad. Great poem Kurt, made me think.

Its Scar Now Yours To Love (Blues Poem #12)
Heather T said:
Sing it cuz you lived it. Poetry is the same. History is as much, just a long series of scars. And then, sometimes even the hoodoo man gets hoodoo\'ed.

A great thought provoking piece. Unfortunately too many of us scratch the scars instead of learning to love them.

Crazy Horse Calls
Kurt Philip Behm said:
Thanks. We were all born with a \'vision\' inside. Life\'s journey
is about finding yours.
I wrote a book years ago, \'Searching For Crazy Horse,\' about my
40-year ride (by motorcycle) through the Rocky Mountain West.
After several years I heard this voice in my ear. Someone was riding
on the bike behind me.
Once I opened up to that voice, everything changed. I spent a lot of
time at Pine Ridge (Oglala Reservation the size of Connecticut), in
South Dakota while writing the book.
That bike (96 Goldwing) now has 180k miles on it. I\'m due back in the
mountains in six weeks.

I may be wrong, but what I see in your beautifully written poem is what is happening to all of us when we penn words with no idea where they came from. Now I know I only have to look for the \"Crazy Horse\"!
