Taking Flight

Kurt Philip Behm

Upon reaching the top

I found a new bottom

Polarity lies

with the truth ill begotten

Direction a ruse

in misguided fruition

As searchers take flight

— in their new destitution

    Love this one Kurt I talks of how there is no absolute. First thing I thought of was sports where a young high school star finds that in college there is so much more talent and then in the pros how he is now on the bottom not the top. The same with what one thought truth once well known finds that it is just the beginning

      Thanks. Yes, an endless cycle recycling.
