In The End (+1)

Kurt Philip Behm

Politicians…

 

Married  

to the sound

of their own voice

 

Divorced

from those

who elected them to serve

 

Philanderers

of a

bigger truth

 

Infidels

in the end

  —only to themselves

 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: October, 2013

 

 

A Writer

 

If I wanted to show you what I see

 I’d be a painter

 

If I wanted to offer you salvation

 I’d be a preacher

 

If I wanted to play to your fantasy

 I’d be an actor

 

But I decided to give you more than that

   —I’m a writer

 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: October, 2018)

    Thanks Laura. It's weeks like this past one
    that make the words 'target rich.'

      Yes, but the beauty of it all is your ability of how well you express these events!
