Prison Of Time Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

Prison Of Time

Rating: 5.0


She wrote into my dreams
the first line of a nightmare

And I can no longer sleep
in fear of the next line

She ran away with all hope
that one line to haunt me

Each new second an hour
—in this prison called time

Wow, this one has bite. Intriguing and sharp. Those first two stanzas reflect a mastery of expression that is just exceptional, and then the last 2 leave the reader bound in contemplation.
