Kurt Philip Behm Poems

Stepping over the line,
in pursuit of a song

Could a melody so right
...

In the darkness last night,
I heard Crazy Horse call

The wind through the willows,
...

Did you do it,
Did you write about it
—or both
...

Can you experience a lifetime,
inside of a minute

Can you say with one word,
...

Were you at one with yourself
while writing it

Did the beginning
...

Writing the words,
owning the words

Prisoners and Minstrels,
...

Before I started asking,
I was too busy living

The questions still in limbo
...

Begging for space
Borrowing a feeling
Stealing a memory
...

Searching for,
not running from

My mind clear
...

Forests of green
call beyond the darkness

Where rivers flow
...
