Forever Marked

Kurt Philip Behm

Waiting to seize a moment

 I knew would never come

 

The visions passed like storm clouds

 deception on the run

 

The light was all around me

 as I stood there in the dark

 

The shadows of misguided fear

 —my path forever marked

 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: December, 2018)

 

 

Helicopters Crash

 

Micromanaged children

 in a micromanaged world

 

The I’s all dotted, T’s all crossed

 lost within the swirl

 

Each cup seemed overflowing

 empty spaces void and null

 

All time and place for life’s surprise

 —now victim to its toll

 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: December, 2018)
