Last Choice

Kurt Philip Behm

If you live your life truly,

death walks close behind

 

There to whisper…

“Time is not on your side”

 

Your choice pending darkness,

to ignore or befriend

 

And embrace

—or forever to deny

 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: October, 2019)

 

 

Inner Thunder

 

Silence

—often the loudest voice of all

 

(Dreamsleep: October, 2019)

    Well written as usual, Kurt. Last Choice somehow brought up Woody Allen's words: "I am not afraid of death, I just don't want to be there when he comes."

      Thanks Fred. Woody will always be Woody!
