Darkness Reigns (+1)

Kurt Philip Behm

Show me a man

without contradiction

I’ll show you

— no man at all

 

(Dreamsleep: May, 2024)

 

 

Darkness Reigns

 

Shunning the light

power hides

in the shadows

gathering allies

— proffering fear

 

(Dreamsleep: May, 2024)

 

 

A Priori Blues

 

Living alone

in quantum space

vibrations

dually churn

 

Hiding behind

a simple rhyme

their essence

undiscerned

 

Turned into words

exposed at last

where time and

memory join

 

Feigning the praise

for something they’re not

disparaged

— and purloined

 

(Villanova University: May, 2024)

    Short and sweet. It reminds me of what I'm going through in my life. It's like the evil is hiding in the light and there is darkness where there should be light. And if you don't obey the fear, the fear will swallow you. It's hard to see the good in people sometimes.
