Three Thoughts For 10/30/2018 Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

Up Or Down

Unchallenged,
we have nowhere to go
—but down

(Villanova University Campus: July,2014)


To Believe In Both

I can believe in you
and not believe in your art

I can believe in your art
and not believe in you

Wouldn't it be nice
—if I could believe in both

(Wayne Pennsylvania: July,2014)




The Bottom Line

What you get
is not always
what you choose

What you choose
is not always
what you want

(Bryn Mawr College: July,2014)
