Comments received on poems by Kurt Philip Behm
Depreciating The Young (+2)
L. B. Mek said:
\'of a longing
of a distance
in the memory
/wayward
of a darkness
of a warning
that prophetic
/sojourned\'..
a write worth meditating until fully comprehended, wonderous in its depth of insight,
at surface level a lament for handicapped youth, but within its true flow are tethered branches to cynicism\'s cyclical back-n-forth,
commenting on humanity\'s search for meaning within moral integrity, between thesis, antithesis and synthesis,
in our never ending dialectic for answers: before we\'ve even comprehended, what questions we must ask of ourselves, let alone life...
in my humble opinion, one of your most meaningful and poetically accomplished write\'s within your chosen distinct style - dear poet, a great effort taking into account its scope! really well executed
thank you for choosing to share

L. B. Mek said:
so very true dear poet,
our mistakes aplenty, life\'s liability a certainty and underneath it all certain thread\'s to truth that hover - offering a gateway to meaningful reality,
only its hard for us to see most times, so we\'re left searching blindly..

Jekill and Hyde, finding a balance is as you write, a difficult thing.
Agree with you on the third one. I hate it when I call my son and he does not answer, but then I text and he texts back right away....

L. B. Mek said:
in the theme of Jerry Maguire:
\'you enticed my scholarly instincts
with those brilliant first two lines\'..
as ever, so unwaveringly insightful even when those insight\'s demean that very thing we scribblers love to do, how brave dear poet, what an example you project for those who strive to utilise it:
\'We speak of truth, our souls delight,
but actions prove us wrong
If words alone could make it so
—each day would end in song\'

\'I’m not against its formulas,
but the philosophy it breeds
Its laws to serve and fertilize
—a deeper planted seed
Reasoned emotion,
the right and the wrong
Obverted direction,
both weak and both strong
“Free speech for me,
but not for thee”
To pander or slander,
a partisan line
No minds to be changed
—their chorus reminds\'...
forgive me for rearranging your fine work, it would take me a thousand lines to dive deep and unfurl all the insightful wisdom hidden in your words,
so lazily - I chose to restructure your very own nuggets of truth, into one flowing waterfall of accessibly tangible depiction of commentary,
on that underbelly transparency of society,
deciphering between our duality of idealistic aesthetic grandeur and that cesspool of conformity: we titled = Reality...
another great write dear Poet!
