Thursday Sound Bites

Kurt Philip Behm

Last Chance

 

In between the shadows

of forgotten yesterdays

Light’s glimmer calling out to me

on bended knee I pray

 

— Two angels appear before me —

their arms are open wide

A glimpse of all eternity

— alive within their eyes —

 

Last chance to heed the Caller

last memory to ordain

Last chance to heed the Caller

— my destiny proclaimed

 

***

 

Your Servant

 

If I was granted one star

from the heavens

To illumine the very blackest

of days

 

In debt to the universe

but free of the dark

A servant I’d kneel

—  celestial to pray

 

***

 

Lettered In Sound

 

Creating new music

inside of each word

Harmonic inscription

— to read and be heard

 

***

 

What Imagery Proffers

 

The deception of reality

lost in plain sight

What the eye often swears to

a mirage will requite

 

Sentience teases

with each sound and each smell

What imagery proffers

— and vision compels
