Kurt Philip Behm

Droughted Love (+1)

Canyons of loss

emotional wastelands

Spires of hope

grasping for sky

 

Riverbeds bake

 mountains are damming

Feelings once deluged

—barren and dry

 

(Dreamsleep: June, 2022)

 

 

Today

 

Talk about the future

and spoil the present

Fox in the henhouse

rats in the barn

 

Moment’s unspoiled

never in reference

Today, not tomorrow

prescience the charm

 

(Dreamsleep: June, 2022)
