Be Careful What ... (+1)

Kurt Philip Behm

Stealing fire from the gods

Prometheus would yearn

And pass it off to humankind

whose banishment interred

 

Their feet into the glowing coals

but faith out from the dark

Enlightenment a powder keg

—uncareful wishing sparks

 

(The New Room: September, 2023)

 

 

Fealty's Bow

 

Everything

points to something

the many to the one

 

Everyone

liege to someone

with fealty’s bow restrung

 

Everywhere

started somewhere

whose map undrawn curates

 

Every song

birthed in silence

—where voices incubate
