Comments received on poems by Kurt Philip Behm
The Enemy Within
Kurt Philip Behm said:
We\'re up to our asses in alligators and nobody is willing
to drain the swamp. When I was a kid, garbage pails sat
outside kitchens in the ground. Once in a while they would
draw ants. I was out there trying to stamp them out with
my Chuck Taylors when my Grandmother motioned through
the window for me to stop.
Ten minutes later she came through the kitchen door with
a pot full of scalding boiling water which she dumped all
over the top of the submerged pail.
As she walked back into the kitchen she said to me... \"Son,
that\'s the only way to kill piss ants.\"
Societally, were in the same place.
Thanks for reading.

Do I sense a faint suggestive Luminatti suggestion? Either way, there is serious disproportion of measuring informal and formal influence that determines life changing policy and law. Nice piece. Many props.

Your writing style is always soft and fluid, with its excellent rhyme. There\'s no time like the present, as yesterday is gone and tomorrow may never be, we must use those windows then to set ourselves free. Beautiful!

This is poignant, reaching into the reader, making them question, contemplate. That is the effect of the author\'s choice of words, cadence and overall delivery of thought. Astounding!

Orphaning The Moment

A mantra and recurring visage. To the point with volumes said in a few pure words.
