Kurt Philip Behm

First & Last (+1)

The end, the beginning,

nearer than far

 

The middle a wasteland

—to banish and tar

 

(Dreamsleep: June, 2021)

 

 

Telltale Signs

 

Spacetime but emergent,

the string on nature’s kite

 

Reeling in a looming giant

—beyond both day and night

 

(Amtrak R5: July, 2021)
