Blood On The Toll Booth

Kurt Philip Behm

In debt

with a dollar’s

down payment

on lies

 

Veracity

hiding

the truth

in disguise

 

Intentions

repaving

the highway

to hell

 

With blood

on the toll booth

and lye

— in the well

    This indeed seems a poem of the open road and highway. It could be a highwayman's hymn or a bandits ballad nicely crafted and with entrancing rhyme it locks the reader in for its short course. Loved its catchiness Kurt.
