Shooting Star (+1)

Kurt Philip Behm

The greater the love

—the shorter the trip

 

(Dreamsleep: April, 2022)

 

 

The Stinging Butterfly

 

No one lived more inside the moment,

No one left others more bent to his will,

No one remembered more for the things that he said,

No one more misunderstood while being so loved

—than Muhammad Ali

 

(Louisville Kentucky: July, 2020)

    Dear Kurt,

    Thank you for sharing ‘The Stinging Butterfly’. You’ve captured the essence of one of the greatest.
    One of my favorite Muhammad Ali quotes,
    “Each time I thought I had achieved my life’s purpose, I discovered it was only another step in my journey.”

    …and the journey continues.
