Beyond Today (+1)

Kurt Philip Behm

You’ll never get to paradise,

by riding on a mule

 

You’ll never lose the Jester,

by acting like a fool

 

You’ll never shed the darkness,

by hiding from the light

 

You’ll never see beyond today

—entrapped in mirrored sight

 

(Dreamsleep: January, 2020)

 

 

 

The Flow

 

Silence…

  the channel to my stream

 

Thoughts…

  the stream to my creek

 

Words…

  the creek to my river

 

Music…

 the river to my becoming

 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: February, 2018)

 

 

The Summit

 

When you’ve been to the top of the mountain

—you can relive the view from afar

 

(Bear Tooth Pass: August, 2019)
