Lost & Truant

Kurt Philip Behm

The Devil’s Workshop

has open hours

His staff is loyal

and shares his powers

 

The Devil’s Workshop

when idle claims

The lost and truant

— with tools aflame

    A lovely write Kurt and for anyone that believes in the devil quite true.

    "The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist" is widely popularized by the 1995 film The Usual Suspects

    Kurt, this is one heck of a poem! Brief, ominous, and darkly playful...you make moral ruin sound disturbingly well-organized. Brilliant work, my friend! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

    Much appreciated, again.
