Poems from Kurt Philip Behm
At odds with myself,
those things you see
Eyes looking out
—feelings within
(Villanova Pennsylvania: August, 2020)
The furniture of my youth,
bed posts of desire
Armoire of a future wish
—hope chest of dreams
(Villanova Pennsylvania: August, 2020)
Hiding in the middle class,
I made my way through life
Looking like I had it made,
no struggle and no strife
Others couldn’t see it,
as...
Standard bearer,
above the fray
Others follow,
trackless fields
Trailing echo’s,
dead and gone
Then tomorrow
—tomorrow then
(...
Clothed in fraud,
his disguise supreme
Frightening listeners,
confusion schemed
His world inside,
a caldera waits
Armageddon...
