Its Reckoning Comes
Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

Wow...a gripping read!

“And it’s reckoning comes
—when you wake from this dream”

I’m not sure about waking
“from this dream”!

May the Spirit of Crazy Horse be forever a central part of your life and may you always ride together!
The present read I’ve begun is totally on a different level! I’ve never read anything like it! The more I read it, the more I’m appreciating who YOU are!

...and this is why I admire you so!
You truly are a man unto yourself! I sensed that from the first time I read your work; hence, the attraction!

Art\'s Greatest Gift (+1)
Kurt Philip Behm said:

Fame, money and notoriety has stopped more artists in their tracks than poverty, sickness, and misfortune combined.

It\'s rare that the famous maintain their creativity and production into middle-age and beyond.

A shame really, those should be their best years.

Thanks Laura

First Breath (+1)
Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

SUBLIME is the perfect adjective to describe “The Crown”! (In my opinion)

Life Or Death (+1)
Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

Many questions to answer.
An easy task it is not!

However, I must admit
that the final question
was not a burden at all
because...

New life will begin in death!

Rising Sun
Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

There’s a sense of familiarity about this one!
Yes, Papa wrote well.
Your couplets...
short, powerful and
as steadfast as the
“Rising Sun”!

The Final Decision (+2)
Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

• The Final Decision

“Divorcing the rational
freedom began”

The vision that these words conjure up is incredible! One for the journal!

• Snow Blind

“And it’s hard
to structure

What you can’t
—see”

Spoken with clarity.
This is what I call a
“je ne sais quoi”
moment!

Two very interesting and intriguing gems!

GREAT writings!

Immolatio
orchidee said:

Ohh I\'ve heard a few stories, makes me shiver, about \'cutting up\', etc. I\'ve gone all cold now, remembering one or two of them!

Immolatio
Kurt Philip Behm said:

Great analogy, Laura. It seems many of the greatest artists
were at times the most tortured.

\"Remembering Van Gogh\'s ear\"....

Immolatio
Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

I’ve been reading and rereading “Immolatio”!

Michelangelo Buonarroti’s vision of him painting the Sistine Chapel ceiling keeps popping in my head and how he reluctantly accepted that commission!
Perhaps it’s because I just finished reading a book about him and also remembering the film, “The Agony and the Ecstasy”!

Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

“Transformed Divine”

I so love this poem!

You are truly a brilliant artist of your craft! Your “words paint a picture
in my mind”...
The pictures are vivid...as are your stories! May your fingers be forever enlivened. Continue to “paint” and set your sublime images free for your readers to enjoy!
