His Legend Lives Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

His Legend Lives



A madman's humanity
of which we decry
When he has those feelings
the same, you and I

How can he commit
such actions of death
Then cry when a comrade
lets out his last breath

A madman with feelings
the concept abhors
That he loves his children
his dog and his whores

His body dies bloody
his legend to live
Embroiled in fury
—only time can forgive
