Kurt Philip Behm

Stepping Out Of The Grave

You have to be immortal

to placate the gods

 

Time reaffirming

all memory of

 

Creation, destruction,

eternity looms

 

For those who believe

—appeasement exhumes

 

(Calvary Cemetery: October, 2020)

 

 

 

Piercing The Veil

 

Reaching into the maelstrom,

my hands were consumed

 

My spirit to follow

—my will to assume

 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: October, 2020)
