The Circle Closes Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

The Circle Closes

Rating: 5.0


Happy endings,
the folly of youth

The aged
alone to portend

Distance a comfort,
expiration afar

Reality
mostly pretend

Death as a concept,
corpse underground

As different as night
is to day

Two ends of the spectrum,
inextricably linked

By time
—ever holding its sway
