In Death Renewed Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

In Death Renewed



Old by the numbers
refusing to give in
dying younger than the years prescribed

All feigned adulthood
to others entrusted
refusing life's final goodbye

The music now was the music then
with one great love to see
me through

My body to the soil
my mind in defiance
—my soul in death renewed

(Villanova Pennsylvania: May,2018)
