Kurt Philip Behm Poems

'Free weight verses'
said the Poet …
'that's what I'm about
...

Step into
reason
The quicksand
of mind
...

Looking under
the streetlamp
vision departs
...

Asleep in their nests
birds dreaming out loud
Just outside his window
new questions aroused
...

How do you start over
consumed by the end
Beginnings aborted
as judgment portends
...

When the final chapter on A.I. is written
what will be the epilogue — will that be the end

(Dreamsleep: May,2024)
...

Two contradictions
meet intertwined
Are they or aren't they
YES, the reply
...

Knowing I won't answer
you're welcome to ask
Questions like a distant
echoing wind
...

Mankind
was never meant
to survive the future
Technology
