According To Wyatt

Kurt Philip Behm

Affable people

are likeable fools

Divorced from the moment

their banter unspools

 

Affable people

in search of a creed

Amusing examples

— of folly indeed

    Excellent write Kurt

    Now, if we cross over into curmudgeons....🤣 Jokes aside, this is a very thought-provoking poem indeed. Now for this potentially silly question, who is Wyatt? Regardless, loved the flow and thought-provoking edge of this poem. Well done, Kurt! 🙏🌹👏

      Wyatt Earp. It was advice that Kevin Costner gave to Bat Masterson’s brother.

        Yes! I remember that film and was wondering if that was the "Wyatt" you were referencing. That is a great film and this is a great poem.

        Another short that tells more than the words or length.
