Annuntiatio (+1)

Kurt Philip Behm

I stumbled through each morning,

it was all about today

Dissolute and scorning,

of all that passed away

Wandering and faint of heart,

old promises unsworn

Living once then living twice

—the moment was reborn

 

(Dreamsleep: June, 2021)

 

 

Bleeding Out

 

Blood stains in my memory,

clotting in my heart

 

Arteries of pain and loss

—hemorrhaging the dark

    Thanks Neil, and welcome here.

    Kurt.

  • rrodriguez

    Yes, every moment is reborn as we live one then live twice. Your poems are so full of practical living, I just have to read them twice and perhaps thrice.

  • Jerry Reynolds

    Well written, Kurt.
    A couple of beauties.

    'Blood stains in my memory,
    clotting in my heart

    Arteries of pain and loss
    —hemorrhaging the dark:

    Bleeding out'
    'I stumbled through each morning,'
    'old promises unsworn'
    'of all that passed away'
    'Dissolute and scorning,'
    ''Wandering and faint of heart,'

    'Living once then living twice
    —the moment was reborn'
    *'annuntio vobis:
    astra inclinant sed non obligant'*
    'Annuntiatio: *of our Spero Spera* ..
    (once more, dear poet
    I have rudely and as ever, selfishly
    gone and rearranged your beautiful Poetry
    all I can do is just hope you can forgive
    my overzealous foolishness
    and see it, as my feeble celebration
    of your endlessly inspirational: Poetic Mastery)

  • Kurt Philip Behm

    I always enjoy your creative editing.

    Thanks LB.
