But Spoken Once (+1)

Kurt Philip Behm

The delivery,

 incidental to the message

 

The format,

 duly chosen for the sound

 

The listener,

 singled out with times forgiveness

 

The truth

  —but spoken once to then abound

 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: November, 2018)

 

 

Beginning To End

 

Hiding within the rhyme

 lies a melody of pronouncement

 lifting the words up off the page

 

Its liberation spoken freely

 within times expanding moment

 giving and taking—beginning to end
