Kurt Philip Behm Poems

Laboring in obscurity
my dog forgets my name
The hours pass, the moments fade
with every day the same
...

A giant of a man
to whom history bows
As schoolboy's sing
his legend proud
...

Left or right
the noise drones on

Distractions prized,
...

Released from
the inferno
Tongue of Satan
to betray
...

You'll never be sure
until you might die
Power imploding
—rebirthed in goodbye
...

The Ocean has no conscience,
no judgment, joy, or hate

She dances with you to her beat
...

Till life retires me I won't retire
all cries to uncles stalled
And won't slow down or buy the farm
till Abraham has called
...

Twelve men in the beginning
reporting unto God
Ten Commandments to proclaim…
devotional synod
...

Orphaned by the distant wind
as darkness bathes the dawn
My wings have flown beyond my sight
to catch the cygnet swan
...

They don't kill politicians anymore
though some might say they should
Those vermin breeding malcontents
all worms in rotten wood
...
