Where I Bleed Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

Where I Bleed



I caught the Muse having an affair….
with my banished and cursed darker side

I could hear them laughing inside me,
such lovemaking I cannot abide

A tryst most unwelcome though familiar,
my dreams left abandoned of sleep

To kill off the one, I must kill off the other
—alone in the night where I bleed

(Villanova Pennsylvania: May,2018)
