The Garden Burning

Kurt Philip Behm

Long before the clocks ticked,

  the garden was burning

 

The law had been laid down,

   only the animals ran free

 

Long before the clocks ticked,

  two lovers were yearning

 

The power, the struggle

  —the lust to deceive

 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: March, 2015)
