Prairie Echoes

Kurt Philip Behm

Our truth

a painful fusion

Without it

but illusion

 

Tatanka

flees the mighty grass

Our future

— in the past

 

(Pine Ridge South Dakota: September, 2026)

    Brevity speaks truth with the shortest distance between two points being a straight line. A lovely write and a fave my friend.

    I felt this, Kurt. Some places carry memory in a way that is hard to ignore, and Pine Ridge is certainly one of them. Well done! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛
