Fired From Your Pen

Kurt Philip Behm

All power in the caliber,

not the number or the count

Its penetration deeper,

when focused, not shooting about

The wound well placed is mortal,

a shot not heard till then

But a gun’s not half as fatal,

—as that thought fired from your pen

(Villanova Pennsylvania: January, 2017)
