As I Wait (+1)

Kurt Philip Behm

Call me darling

but never darlin

Call me lovely

but never cute

Call me warmly

from the snow bank

Call me your

forbidden fruit

 

Call me restless

dreams on fire

Call me once

when twice won’t do

Call my name

into the darkness

Call me

—as I wait for you

 

(Villanova University: September, 2023)

 

 

The Divide

 

Easier to know others

than knowing myself

Sentience numbing

what in a stranger is felt

Easier to reach out

than to look deep inside

This painfully obvious

—cognition’s divide
