Blues Poem #17 (+1)

Kurt Philip Behm

A lotta times

it ain’t good

and it ain’t bad

— it’s what it is

 

(Blue Front Café: August, 1969)

 

 

Eternity Burns

 

Apocalypse kindles    

relighting the fire

Malignant denominators

melt from above

Savior disdained

pontificate’s stain

Tomorrow endemic

— in nuclear love

 

(The New Room: March, 2024)

    Yeah, I find this a captivating little poem. I was wondering what the cafe and the date refers to also? Cheers, Tom.

    The Blue Front Cafe is the original Blues Juke Joint in Bentonia Miss.
    I was there on my motorcycle with my harp in my pocket in 1969.

    Thanks for reading ...
