Ode To Pandora

Kurt Philip Behm

Some rocks you don’t turn over

some tales you never tell

 

Some lights you never throw the switch

—some broth you never chill

    Thank you

  • L. B. Mek

    absolute Genius, what depth's dear Poet
    Brilliant! you must be so pleased
    (ahhh! if I had the time
    I would outline, each line
    and unfurl its depths, read aside
    that beguiling title line
    at least, what depths I could glimpse)
    'Ode to Pandora
    -some broth you never chill'
    we're accustomed to warmth
    and those seemingly abundant
    tasty treats of life
    we guile away, minutes and days
    assumingly little will change
    yet
    in but a flash, our world is warped
    dystopian
    and just like, that piping hot
    broth
    served, just at the right temperature
    to warm our very souls
    yet, were we
    at our tenth outing of that favourited eatery
    to take it for granted and let it, seat
    ignored, so ignorantly
    how harshly different its taste
    now, all cold and wasted
    an opportunity...)
    I'm rushing but something like this
    forgive me, each line
    deserves, its own SA!
