The Future Clear

Kurt Philip Behm

Being my number one fan,

 I never waited for applause

 

Living within my own code

 all reasons fixed on—just because

 

Being in charge of myself

 the days flowed freely into years

 

Dying from living too hard

 the past exposed—the future clear

    Kurt,

    A great one!
    Subconsciously it is not easy as we think...
    to be in charge of oneself.

    We reap what we sow!
    Letā€™s ā€œhopeā€ the price is not too heavy.
    Thereā€™s that word ā€œhopeā€ again!

    Have a good night.

    ~Laura~

      That wordā€”'Hope' ā€”is Cutty's Achilles Heel.

      Thanks Laura.
