First & Last

Kurt Philip Behm

Forty years of turmoil…

the top of the heap

The head of the table,

but nothing has changed

Consensus of endorsement,

accolades of exhaustion

Whose tracks have long faded

—regret in the wind

    Good write, Kurt.
    Be careful what you work for;
    You might achieve it.

  • Kurt Philip Behm

    Amen!

  • L. B. Mek

    indeed, oh wise poet
    'Consensus of endorsement,
    accolades of exhaustion
    Whose tracks have long faded'..
    I relate, too - much, for my sanity's comfort
    thank you, for letting us know
    we're not alone
    that enough, for me: becomes, its own comfort...

    • Kurt Philip Behm

      And thank you for your thoughtful comments and insight.
