Kurt Philip Behm

Plus Or Minus

 

Is it a strength

or a weakness

not to know

when it’s over

 

Is it positive

or negative

the result

— zero sum

 

(Dreamsleep: July, 2026)

  

Divinity’s Harvest

 

The mills of God

grind slowly

The grist of

— Heaven’s delight

 

(Dreamsleep: July, 2026)

  

Springing Forth

 

Leaving the last

of our verses unfinished

With lines unwritten

for others to plead

 

A poem of hope

springs forth from the shadows

Where statements are doubted

— and wonder believed

 

(Dreamsleep: July, 2026)

  

Waiting For The Wind

 

Sails

 unhoisted

Folded

they wait

For wind

to unfurl them

As horizons 

— conflate

 

(Dreamsleep: July, 2026)

  

Rushing Past

 

Placing

a period on time

And a stop sign

on creation

We dally in place

— spitting into the wind

 

(Dreamsleep: July, 2026)

  

New Voices

 

Itinerant

air

Sacred in its

wandering

Searching for

new voices

Divorced

— from the wind

 

(Mariahan Memories: July, 2026)

 

 

Why & Where

 

We are here

who knows why

And we go

— who knows whither

 

(Dreamsleep: July, 2026)

    Today Kurt I was struck by the last poem indeed that is the question we all search for the answer to. Some find it in religion, others material gain. Well written
