Poems from Kurt Philip Behm
Star crossed love
a rocky shoal
Distant halves
—a different whole
(The New Room: March, 2023)
Do you have a secret
that’s never been told
Deeply within you
like long buried gold
Do you keep your own counsel
for no one to hear
While...
Every life dies
rebirth in the nest
Waiting for fate
again to reset
Moments of laughter
moments of rhyme
Burning like candles
in forever...
You can’t beat fate
with the stars in alignment
You can’t beat fate
all your ducks in a row
You can’t beat fate
with your words in...
Become what you are
false prophets be damned
The greatness within you
beyond their command
Become what you will
His light shining forth...
