Permission Granted (+2)

Kurt Philip Behm

A strange thing happens

  once you’re as old as your heroes

 

The mystery less enchanting

  the romance nearly gone

 

A stranger thing happens

  when you outlive your heroes

 

The nuances shouting boldly

   —permission now won

 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: June, 2016)

 

 

Darkness Runs

 

The night a gift

  though minus sleep

 

With dreams adrift

  and words to keep

 

Blankness woven

  connection spun

 

A poem born

  —dark on the run

 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: June, 2016)

 

 

Free & Clear

 

The night in riches

  my vault again full

 

The words overflowing

  old debts now annulled

 

The stillness a fortune

  its quiet sublime

 

The meaning unmortgaged

   —a poem divine

 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: June, 2016)
