Leaving New Tracks (+1)

Kurt Philip Behm

Born young again myself befriends,

the years all left behind

To wither and die one last goodbye

then bury into time

Born young until myself instilled

as deja vu reminds

Of Autumn snow my heart aglow

—new memory in rhyme

 

(Dreamsleep: October, 2021)

 

 

Ball & Chain

 

Hostage to fortune,

prisoner of time

 

Trophies a burden,

 polished and shined

 

Greed but a jailer,

freedom denied

 

Hope in confinement

—wishing a crime

    'Born young until myself instilled
    as deja vu reminds

    Of Autumn snow my heart aglow
    —new memory in rhyme'..
    these lines are so subtle and distilled,
    they ink-out imagery of the memories I thought I had long forgotten,
    a great write, Kurt
    thank you!
