Kurt Philip Behm

Elba Blues

That unshared secret…

a crawlspace of denial

where shadows keep your heart at bay,

lonely all the while

 

To hide in darkened corners,

as falsehood lends its smile

your mind left cramped—all virtue tramped,

banished and exiled

Prescribed philosophy…

 medicine of the soul

 

Brainchild of the gods

—thoughts becoming whole
