Literate Quicksand

Kurt Philip Behm

 Did you edit away the fire,

in your attempt to be correct

 

Do your words make you a liar,

as they break and disconnect

 

Is that order you chased after,

now deserted no-mans land

 

With your mind and spirit sinking,

—in a literate quicksand

 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: October, 2016)

    It is tough, at times, to use the words you really want to use. You have expressed that very well.
