Don't Look Back (+1)

Kurt Philip Behm

When artists

grow reflective

their impact

is stalled

 

All direction

is hijacked

momentum

 recalled

 

Looking back

through their psyche

a tunneler’s

view

 

As horizon’s

lie waiting

with visions

— anew

 

(Dreamsleep: April, 2025)

 

 

Mush

 

Neuroscience

takes a world class meal

grinds it into bits

and tries to convince us

 — its taste has improved

 

(Villanova University: April, 2025)

      Glad it resonated, thanks. Second guessing is for when we're dead 🙂
