Torches Rage Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

Torches Rage



The past is but a distant flame,
with reasons there disowned

Where fire burns in effigy,
to singe that falsely known

The ages but a candle dim,
its wick burned to the quick

As torches rage from deep within
—all time a kindling stick

(Dreamsleep: March,2020)
