Naked Ashes

Kurt Philip Behm

Why are you

waiting

your house

is burning

Run while

you can

from the blaze

inside

 

What will

be left

in the morning

after

But naked

ashes

and tears

— uncried

    We respond to warning in such a delayed manner if at all disaster will come and we must prepare. A great poem of human nature

  • Tristan Robert Lange

    Wow! Now that's quite the dream...and an awesome poem! It comes off as an omen to be interpreted by each individual reader. Well done on this one! A fave, my friend! 🌹👏
