The edge of eternity
often obscured
lost in plain sight
just beyond
Until cutting through
a moments grief
immortalized
in song
Leonard Cohen and
Bob Dylan as one
freeing new spaces
inside
Where lost in
the maelstrom
alone disavowed
— the best of ourselves tries to hide

I can identify with that, love both Bob Dylan and Leonard Cohen their music an inspiration. Nicely done Kurt I have hidden in both.
Thanks Man.
You are most welcome Kurt
Kurt, this feels quietly expansive. The poem opens a thin place where grief, music, and eternity brush against each other…and it lingers. Well done, my friend! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
Thanks TR. Very expressive.
Most welcome, Kurt!
