Tropic Of Capricorn (+1)

Kurt Philip Behm

Loving

the solitude

Loving

the silence

Hating

consensus

Hating

refrain

 

Loving

the magic

Loving

the present

Hating

the reference

Hating

— proclaims

Tooth Of The Bear

 

Killing

time

without

wounding

eternity

Life

in the

balance

life

— on the edge

    Indeed so it seems that it is. A great use of word repetition in different senses. Well done Kurt

  • Kurt Philip Behm

    Thanks again, Soren.

  • Tristan Robert Lange

    It was the pairing of “killing time without wounding eternity” that stopped me. Both poems carry that same tension...present beauty pressed against the void. Strong work. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛
