Hello & Goodbye

Kurt Philip Behm

Leavened unleavened

risen and stayed

Lost when recovered

joyful dismay

 

Intrinsic extrinsic

the whole without parts

Tomorrow this moment

stopping to start

 

Benign and bedeviled

revealed yet unseen

A valid deception

blessed but obscene

 

The past and the future

hello and goodbye

Affirming rejection

— all truth to belie
