Their Contrail (+1)

Kurt Philip Behm

Try as I might,

to hide from the words

 

Distant and fleeting,

they still can be heard

 

The nouns are a kite,

lone verb as the tail

 

Flying within me,

my heart their contrail

 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: May, 2017)

 

 

Deafened To Hear

 

 The ending in sight,

—beginning so near

 

What’s loosened now tight,

—those deafened to hear

 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: May, 2017)
