Kurt Philip Behm

\'Never More\' (+1)

You say you’re in search of America …

go to the food court at the mall

 

If you can still eat after looking around

—you ignore the Ravens call

 

(The Court At King Of Prussia: April, 2023)

 

 

Vita Nova

 

Poets see verse in every moment

beauty with every look

Pain for every step misplaced

scars that words prebook

 

Poets see light within the darkness

music in the dread

Hope when wishes cross the line

—life to those once dead

 

(Dreamsleep: April, 2023)
