New Verse Begins

Kurt Philip Behm

The layman will ask…

always questioning what

 

The poet observes…

always adding a why

 

The universe inhales

within the difference

 

And with each ensuing breath,

—new verse begins

    I'm looking for an angle to grasp this poem. It's reflective and philosophical. "The poet observes..." is a skill found in a true poet. Your poem is intriguing in its depth and it can cause one to wonder. It leaves one thinking... Nicely done my friend!

    Thanks Roberto,
    I've always believed the world turns on as little as 'one word.' I started out in college (Penn State) as a psychology major but kept asking my professors 'WHY." They finally told me they only dealt with 'WHAT,' and not 'WHY.' Why was answered down the hall in the Philosophy Dept. I then switched majors and never looked back. Thanks for reading. Kurt
