Et Tu

Kurt Philip Behm

Contagion of anxiety, 

a blanketing wind

Deafening all

with the force of its emptiness

Reclaiming the silence

—in betrayals of fear

    Very forceful, though struggled with 'banketing wind' , but just me. Loved it. Full of imagery and sounds.

  • Kurt Philip Behm

    Thanks. It's 'blanketing.'

    • flyingfish

      Fantastic write, Kurt.
      Been there, will keep this to read when I go there again.
