Kurt Philip Behm

Imprisoned (+1)

What do the years mean

when they come to an end

their number a prison

if hearts cannot mend

 

A month or a decade

results but the same

when love is abandoned

—there’s nothing but pain

 

(Dreamsleep: August, 2023)

 

 

Jester In Transit

 

Bending a breaking point

rupturing time

Eons of history

skirting the line

 

Paradox native

our true D.N.A.

Truth as a concept

forever in play

 

Yessing and noing   

transfixed in between

The jester in transit

all canons demeaned

 

Freeing the moment

 the first wedded last

a twist to the turning

 

(Septa R5 To 30th Street: August, 2023)
