Lunar Surprise (+1)

Kurt Philip Behm

You can’t embrace

the moment forever

whose verity

at essence ungrained

 

By definition

it must rename itself

once mentioned

decried and disclaimed

 

What came upon you

to die in place

where vacuums exit

in time and space

 

Regenerating

from life’s cocoon

and starting over

—Amayasvan moon

 

(The New Room: December, 2023)

 

 

Final Due Date

 

A moment of truth

a century of lies

The left hand deflects

what the right hand decries   

 

A little bit pregnant

the ending begins

A monster gestating

—and living within

 

(The New Room: December, 2023)
